i never did really care about income and property taxes (including vehicle related taxes), even though they can be a pain in the *ss. i believe they’re a fair share of contribution to society, at least in the capitalist context that we live in. but it bothers me product taxes, especially those levied upon non-processed or low-processed food, medicine, basic hygiene and cleaning, basic clothing and products not produced in your country when said country doesn’t have an industrial policy to encourage the production of these items internally.
