    You said, when I talked about progressive tax:

    That’s different. That’s based purely on the amount. And I’m not just talking about salary, but compensation, including stock options, expense accounts, and other benefit packages that executives get beyond salary.

    I don’t understand what’s different then, if we both agree that the taxable base for an individual is their total compensation, not their base salary. I think we might have just talked past one another and essentially agree

      Sounds like it. I assumed you were simply talking about a progressive tax for wages and salaries that we already have.
