In Australia, the way people earn their money affects the rate of tax they pay — and top earners have a very different income mix from everyone else.

      lowest earning = wage majority + government assistance

      average/middle = wage for pretty much majority, very little from anything else

      upper class = still wage majority but more from dividends/trusts etc

      elites = dividends, capital gains, trusts, other, and wages are all pretty close to each other in %

        these two groups get the most “government assistance”
