Pasquale Tridico, MEP of the 5 Star Movement and President of the subcommittee of the European Parliament for tax issues, has made a proposal for reform the tax authorities. Something that could strongly hit citizens with higher income.
Specifically, one is indicated Tax for ultra -articchsto be understood as European citizens who declare income above 100 million euros. The pentastellato, who declared that he wanted to collect as much consent as possible around this project, presented the proposal by making use of the presence of Gabriel Zucman, a French economist who first had the idea of taxing the ultra -articles more.
For Italy there would be 8 billion euros
The intervention, in the vision of its proposer, would have the main purpose of reducing social inequality. Entering more specifically, Tassing by 2% those who have more than 100 million euros, could be collected in total in the 27 EU member countries 67.2 billion euros which would rise to 120.8 by opting with the 3%rate.
Placing the focus on only Italythe measure with 2% rate would lead to additional revenues for 8 billion“Which is exactly the cost of citizenship income”. With the percentage of taxation at 3%, however, it would arrive at 15 billion“That are the costs of the validity,” said Tridico.
Less taxes for small medium companies
“I believe that Parliament must work both for fairly equity issues and for the possibility of collecting money and stimulating our services,” said Pasquale Tridico who also remarked the importance for the European Union to reduce the risk of moving capital towards the most compliant countries.
“We need – he added – a tax revolution that reduces the taxation to small and medium -sized enterprises and the most vulnerable. The inequality is intolerable, it creates a high level of polarization, creates plutocracy. We want to take the initiative and build a consent (on the proposal, editor’s note)”.
