Message | Same deal as my earlier "tax and spend" bill: To stimulate the economy we suggest the following tax adjustment, we propose lowering the corporation tax as this encourages forgien companies to invest in us and it allows corporations to reinvest their money, if they do not reinvest it and the owners spend the money it will come under the even higher luxury goods tax. The maths: 4% corporation tax is : 567,493,202LPD Which is 851,239,803 less money brought in. 15% Sales tax on luxury goods is: 10,033,103,312 Which is: 3344367770.5 extra That means we get 2,493,127,967.5 extra revenue in total. Since we alread have a 4,559,023,881surplus that gives us 7052151849 to spend, I spend 6,000,000,000 extra with this proposal so we would be left in the end with 1,052,151,849 surplus |

Message | The maths works, and this brings indirect taxation closer to the whopping income tax rate, so we say aye. |
