"We should impose a 20 percent luxury tax on expensive automobiles (those with a sales price of $75,000 or more) in order to collect more tax revenue from the wealthy." Will the burden of the proposed tax fall primarily on the wealthy?
Why or why not?
When the government levies a tax on a good, who actually bears the burden of the tax? The people buying the good? The people selling the good? Or if buyers and sellers share the tax burden, what determines how the burden is divided? Can the government simply legislate the division of the burden, as the mayor is suggesting, or is the division determined by more fundamental market forces? *
How can tax incidences have a positive and negative impact on the economy?
