Isn't EU's "VAT" a regressive tax? Why do they have that, instead of something like, taxing the rich? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Depends on what is being paid, the VAT model being used, the country etc.

For instance in France the base tva is 20%, but food and hygiene products have a special status which reduces it to 5.5%

I forgot the exact details buI if I recall correctly in Germany they have two models A and B depending on the product, forgot the percentage though. And then if you're buying something for work the percentage can change again.

My partner picks it up from underneath the slice and starts by eating the crust. To this day I'm still baffled by it.
