Bill: Arbeiderrådene og skattelovgivningen
Details
Submitted by[?]: Folkebevegelsen av Kazulige (FaK)
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 3998
Description[?]:
We propose restructuring our tax structure to favour new and small businesses, especially those run democratically. The sale of goods related to basic human needs will be untaxed, and therefore more profitable and more available to lower-income citizens. The corporate tax rate will be adjusted to generate additional revenue while remaining competitive internationally. Furthermore, we will empower local governments to protect our local businesses from being undercut, subsumed, or simply driven out of business by multinational corporations. |
