I.V.A... good or bad?

They rose the I.V.A and what for? They say they will use that money for making more jobs, make better infrastructure and all that stuff, and we should believe them, but I have issues in the part of the people that pay that tax. Because how many people pay that tax? I think that the percentage of people that pay that is so little and ironically the ones that gain more money (the richest) are the ones that avoid more taxes, while the people that have less money have more difficulties when avoiding taxes, so they avoid less taxes and obviously they pay more.

I found this really unfair, and because the ones that have less pay more than the ones that have more (according to the percentage everybody should pay). In my personal opinion the government should do something with this problem because it shouldn’t continue because as a country it should have a value called equality and this problem can cause much more problems, for example: can make the difference between classes even bigger.

It is important that everybody pays taxes because with that money government can pay & produce more jobs, make better our infrastructure, highways, buildings, etc. But it is also important to check what do our representatives do with our money (check that they’re not stealing it, using it appropriately, etc.)
