You're thinking about "high earners" in the traditional "people providing a very valuable service in exchange for money" sense.
High income individuals in this sense are taxed quite highly in basically every first world country.
The people who aren't taxed highly, and who arguably should be, aren't the "high earners" but the "high revenue owners" whose income derives not from their own work but from the performance of the assets that they own.
