Re:'Reading crisis' prompts Denmark to end 25% tax on books by Dig1t on Thursday August 21, 2025 @01:47AM (#44969432)
True, but also there is a commonly accepted rule in economics where taxing something disincentivizes consumption of that thing. Usually when you lift taxes on something you will see a rise in consumption on that thing. But it remains to be seen if the 15 year olds in this situation will be the ones to consume more of it.
