What? That's not how taxes work at all.
It is in the US apparently.
No it is not. Your father got up to the next tax bracket, but the tax rate for every bracket only applies to the income earned within that bracket. Unless there is some very specific fuckery going on, or there is something up with means tested benefits, it is impossible for your taxes to increase faster than your income.
Ok.
