I'm heading that the more money you make, the more you end up paying in taxes and it has me thinking... where does the percentage of the money you owe to the government end?
For example, if I make $500,000 this year and the government takes away 50% of my income from taxes, what would happen if I make $1,000,000 next year? Will they take 100% of my income...?
And it also has me pondering the fact that when you make more money, they take more. If I wanted to legally own $1,000,000 made in a year then they'd take a percentage of it, which would mean that I wouldn't have reached my income goal in terms of owning the million dollars.
What if I made $2,000,000 in a year? Would I be owning $1,000,000 after taxes have been paid?
I hope my questions are making sense. The tax subject is fairly new to me.
