The current tax would be $9375, so an increase of $1625 (+17.33%) with the latest proposal. This is certainly better than what was being proposed originally (very stupid proposal) if I got that right. Not going to say it's perfect by any means but the original proposal was horrible.

it's being called progressive but I am not sure if that refers to the application of the tax rates or not. the descriptions in news articles would indicate not.
