OK, your tax calculations are at least potentially correct, assuming the rate for the band between $50k and $75 is 30% i.e. that additional 25k results in an additional $7.5k tax. I'm not sure where you conclude that someone's poor financial management is the government's fault. Before the raise, their take home pay was $42.5k, after the raise it's $60k. If the person in question didn't increase their outgoings in excess of $17.5k there wouldn't be a problem.

This has nothing to do with tax bands or the government, and everything to do with bad budgeting.
