Federal tax. A regressive tax is generally a tax that is applied uniformly to all situations, regardless of the payer. Regressive tax takes a larger percentage of income from low-income earners than from high-income earners. It is in opposition with a progressive tax, which takes a larger percentage from high-income earners.
