D. people who made more money pay a higher percentage in taxes

The People's Party, or Populists, wanted an income tax put into place that would require the wealthy to pay a higher percentage of taxes than lower income brackets.

Many of the goals of the Populist Party were to bring down the power and wealth of the top 1% by making them contribute more to the overall well-being of the country. An income tax would bring in more revenue and reduce the wealth of the most powerful. This would also allow the government to reduce taxes paid by farmers to use transportation systems.
