Punitive Tax

1. A tax imposed to discourage a behavior. For example, retirement plans usually have excise taxes placed upon them if one makes a withdrawal prior to a certain age.

2. An extraordinarily high tax. For example, a government theoretically could impose a tax of 99% on all income over $20,000. There is no consensus as to what qualifies as a punitive tax.
