Details
Submitted by[?]: Wind of Change
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: November 4207
Description[?]:
| We think that if a person can afford buying unnecessary things for millions of MCR , they won't mind to pay a little bit more for it. This change will allow us to decrease the taxes for the essential products such as food or common clothing. We calculate that Malivia will get an 1% more money from sales taxes through this bill. |
