Bill: Essential Goods Tax Elimination Bill 4301

Details

Submitted by[?]: Secularist, Socialist Party of Baltusia

Status[?]: defeated

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: May 4302

Description[?]:

Members of Congress,

The essential goods tax hits those who are the worst off in our society the most because while everyone pays it, for those who are in poverty it increases their bills and can push those just above the poverty line into poverty.

If this passes then we will collect 3,403,127,530 BLD more in tax and the average person will only pay 34 BLD more.

Richard Leonardo
Secretary of State for Finance
