Answer to Question 1

In progressive tax systems, higher income levels face higher average tax rates. In a proportional tax system, households pay the same percentage of their incomes in taxes regardless of their income level; in other words, the average tax rate does not vary with income. In a regressive tax system, the average tax rate declines with income so that low-income households pay a greater percentage of income in taxes than do high-income households. In the United States, income taxes (except flat-rate state and local income taxes) are progressive. Social Security and sales taxes are regressive.

Answer to Question 2

D The other answers are necessary conditions for economic growth.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
