| Message | Beniamino Massa, Leader of AI "Sir, your 'redistribution of income' will fail miserably you know that right? Sales tax is a regressive tax, meaning it takes a higher proportion of income of poorer, average Istalians, than from the rich bourgeoisie... So effectively it will do the exact opposite, making the poor poorer, allowing their money to buy less, and the rich will essentially not care. Please take that into account to avoid any unwanted results." |
