A 10% increase would be quite a lot for monthly food bills. Especially with the impacts of inflation over the past couple of years. This would be a madness imo.
A majority of Finns are rich and voted for this. Although maybe some didn’t know they were.
VAT is a regressive tax and already high in Finland. Raising it for essential items is just a tax on being poor.
PS has to pay for all those tax cuts for the rich somehow
Weren’t they supposed to make working more profitable?
