§Grammar and usage
Usage: a progressive tax takes a higher rate from the rich, while a regressive tax takes a larger share of income from the poor, as indirect taxes often do.
Usage में progressive tax अमीरों से ऊँची दर पर कर लेता है, जबकि regressive tax गरीबों की आय का बड़ा हिस्सा लेता है, जैसा अक्सर indirect taxes में होता है।
