A higher rate applies only to the slice of income that reaches its bracket. Deductions empty the base from the top down, so they come back at the highest rate the income actually reached.

Treatment and education share one social ceiling. A deduction can never exceed the yearly income, so anything above it stays out of the "Accepted" column.
