Warren Buffett: Stop coddling the super rich
No, it is a description of the tax code. It is not a judgement of the tax code. It is a 'progressive tax' or 'progressive tax rate'. It has nothing to do with 'progress' or the 'Progressive party'.

Yes, but people call our taxcode Progressive, when as Buffet point's out it's regressive at the top.
