Progressive tax only makes sense if you're Robin Hood. But taxking more for those who earn more doesn't make sense to the ones who make more. They interpret it as taxing success which it of course is. Just because someone has more doesn't mean they should be taxed more. If everyone isn't taxed at the same rate it's fundamental unfair.
Hypothetically, why shouldn't the American government be allowed to tax your success, if your success was achieved in part because of the American government protecting your rights to attempt to be successful.
You don't just get to work towards being successful because you're born into the world. You get to because you're born (or move to) the United States.
