Coronavirus pandemic and new tax order

 

Ruben Alexis Hernandez

 

In the midst of the dire socioeconomic consequences derived from the COVID-19 pandemic and its malicious handling by the elites, government measures in tax matters could not be absent, necessary according to the capitalist point of view and supposedly favorable in part to the needy . Certain taxes were reduced, others were increased, and some were temporarily eliminated; However, what is coming in the tax area after a certain macroeconomic recovery, framed in the new world order, will not be anything positive for the majority of humanity. We are at the gates of a new global tax order, in line with the criminal corporocracy that seeks to consolidate itself, and therefore favorable to its preservation.

 

Said new tax order will be characterized, broadly speaking, by a general and progressive increase in tax rates and amounts, which will undoubtedly improve state revenues (tax collection) and ironically will benefit large capital, whose owners will make consumers and users finalists are those who pay in excess of the taxes demanded of the corporations. Here are some of the tax peculiarities in the context of the approaching new world tax order, clearly negative for the impoverished majority and for formal small business owners and informal workers:

 

1. Increase in VAT.

2. Increase in income tax.

3. Increase in property tax.

4. Imposition of global taxes on digital businesses in the middle of a virtual-cybernetic society, even those that do not produce high income.

5. Implementation of special taxes to natural persons. Ridiculous for the wealthy, but tough for salaried citizens.

6. Tax projection for the informal economy, to which more people are being discarded every day by the formal public and private sectors.

 

Obviously, the new global tax order has generated and will generate social reactions in different parts of the planet, such as in the case of Colombia, a country that has been severely affected by the consequences of the health emergency. It is part of the new criminal world order, which must be fought intensely throughout the world before it is too late.
