- kspaans 11y agoThe money you use to buy stuff also (usually) pays consumption taxes. Yet that money was income that you've already paid income tax on. Should consumption taxes be abolished?
- necessity 11y agoIf it were possible, yes. It is actually a big problem, specially on countries that heavily depend on it (such as Brazil), since the poor can't escape it and it affects them badly. The poor are the ones who pay more taxes proportionally because of that, in Brazil[1], whereas whoever owns a business (small or big) can usually avoid some taxes.
