Out of curiosity, since you said "In the USA" specifically, is there any tax regime in these times where tax brackets don't work like this?

I have never heard of one. I believe that in the UK, because of caps on childcare benefits, a wage increase can actually decrease your take-home but generally marginal tax rates operate on marginal income.

They likely don’t know every country’s tax code and instead of confidently spreading misinformation like the above commenter, this commenter is being careful to only state facts they actually do know.

Yes! Just didn’t want to assume every country in the world operated like the USA
