Jup, the normal 19% VAT, which is levied on most goods. By the way, more in other countries.
Fairness in taxes is in the overall economy.
Everyone wants great roads, a safe country, social benefits, basic security, pensions that are good for life…
Nobody wants to pay taxes!
Is that fair?
Taxes are nothing more than a levy on the total costs that causes the population as a whole.
THE STATE does not have its own money, it manages OUR money, which we raise in the form of taxes and public duties, fees.
We're the state and let us manage with representatives we choose.
So also the 100 Euro VAT, which you pay your money, it flows back in the form of various services to you, maybe not everything, maybe even more.
Of course, the form of survey can be arguably quarreled.
What there was and is: beer tax, wine tax, spirits tax, pleasure tax, salt tax, sex tax in Cologne, gambling tax, coffee tax…
