I say yes, just to make things more fair, but the rate for people who are living around the poverty line should be extremely low.
That's the exact opposite of fair because those in poverty still receive the full benefit of being citizens.
If every citizen has to pay, then assuming everyone is equal per the 14th amendment, everyone should pay the exact same dollar amount. Progressive taxation is the embodiment of inequality.
