Description[?]:
| The Front de Gauche propose to adjust the government's income tax policy to better address the economic situation of the Empire d'Aldurie (Alduria). ---------------------------- The tax reforms will cut the taxes of all individuals earning below 42,000ALD, putting more money back into the pockets of hard working families. The threshold at which income tax begins has also been raised from 7,000ALD to 10,000ALD, making sure that work pays and the lowest income earners see the biggest rises. This has been paid for by increased taxation of high value luxury goods and by a lowering of the thresholds on taxation for higher earners Karine Beaugendre Minister of Finance, Empire d'Aldurie . |
