Now, these has an effect on the efficiency of the economy, with increased incentive and payment being offered to the poor and a decrease in the profit made by the wealthy due to increased taxes. The desire to put maximum effort to work reduces on the path of both, hence leading to a decrease in production of goods and services hence, decrease in efficiency
