I’m reminded of that old saying ‘you tax what you want less of”
Want to reduce problem drinking? Raise alcohol taxes.
Want to reduce smoking? Raise tobacco taxes.
Want to reduce obesity? Raise sugar taxes.
Want to reduce high paying jobs? Raise payroll tax.
It seems to be working like a charm.
Thinking there is an error in the Deloitte snapshot. It shows payroll tax increases on all bands above $48k but says employees earning under $96k will be paying less?
They just hit hard working Bermuda with 2% more tax on their earnings. Cost of living increases and less money in the pocket, This is not a Labour Party in any way. Stop hurting labour!
