I believe the most commonly supported tax strategy by economists is an income tax that goes negative below some threshold.

Personally, I'm open to VAT tax because it would be much easier to incorporate the disposal cost into goods and remove externalities (like pollution).

As you've said, it would be ideal to have strategies in place to lessen the burden on people with lower incomes.

This bill doesn't have any of those strategies or objectives.
