Description[?]:
The nation's current sales tax on essential goods such as food and non-luxury clothing is not necessary and harmful to the interests and lives of our citizens. Current Sales Tax Revenue: 232,200,985,776 CDC Post-Bill Sales Tax Revenue: 178,616,142,905 CDC Current Total Revenue: 453,403,970,881 CDC Post-Bill Total Revenue: 399,819,128,010 CDC Current Total Surplus: 103,833,970,881 CDC Post-Bill Total Surplus: 50,249,128,010 CDC As you can see this proposal would not harm our economy or nation. The changes to sales tax are negligible as well as the changes to revenue which are negligible. It would appropriate surplus funds to perform a vital service to our citizens while allowing for future services with the remaining surplus. |
