From the US Congressional Budget Office[1]: "When workers’ earnings rise but their after-tax income rises less—because of increases in their income and payroll taxes or declines in their benefits from government programs—their incentive to work typically declines" [1] https://www.cbo.gov/publication/52472 |

Otherwise, it's just trivially true for any taxation regime: a flat 1% tax means your after-tax income rises less than your pre-tax income.
