Consider, for example, a married, self-employed New Jersey lawyer with three children and earnings of $615,000. Getting $100 in business income beyond that amount would force the lawyer to pay $105.45 in federal and state taxes, according to calculations by the conservative-leaning Tax Foundation. That is more than double the marginal tax rate that household faces today.
If the New Jersey lawyer’s stay-at-home spouse wanted a job, the first $100 of the spouse’s wages would require $107.79 in taxes. And the tax rates for similarly situated residents of California and New York City would be even higher, the Tax Foundation found. Analyses by the Tax Policy Center, which is run by a former Obama administration official, find similar results, with federal marginal rates as high as 85%, and those don’t include items such as state taxes, self-employment taxes or the phase-out of child tax credits.
The bill as written would provide incentives for business owners to shift profits across calendar years, move personal expenses inside the business and engage in other economically unproductive maneuvers, said David Gamage, a tax-law professor at Indiana University.

Unlike the house bill which doesn’t let any lawyers deduct pass through income, the senate bill lets them get the benefit up to 500k for married mos. so basically as long as they make less than 500k, they get a 23 percent tax credit.
That credit is eliminated as you go above 500k, and is phase out completely very quickly (by 625k or so) resulting in the crazy marginal rates. So i don’t think it’s really unfair, but certainly dumb policy, as it definitely encourages people to stary under 500k.
