Abstract

Nous nous intéressons à l'imposition du revenu, entendue dans un sens très large puisque nous y incluons l'impôt négatif que constitue le versement de subventions accordées sous conditions de revenu. Dans le barème actuel, les taux marginaux d'imposition ont un profil en U. La progressivité de l'impôt se traduit par des taux élevés au sommet de la distribution des revenus. Mais le caractère d'allocation différentielle du Revenu Minimum d'Insertion fait aussi apparaître des taux égaux à l'unité au bas de la distribution.
