Describe and explain the most important disadvantage of sales taxes as sources of revenue for states
What will be an ideal response?
Sales taxes are regressive, meaning lower income people pay a higher percentage of their income in sales taxes than do higher income people. For example, a family of four that makes $25,000 per year spends about the same amount of money on food as a family of four that makes $75,000 per year on food, but the sales tax on the food is a much greater percentage of $25,000 than it is of $75,000.
