Comment on ‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’
roofuskit@lemmy.world 1 day agoSales taxes are regressive. People who spend more money on services and less on goods are typically wealthier. Sales taxes hit the poor the hardest. Whereas the property tax on a multi unit building is typically a better rate for each family than a single family home.

If you hire a nanny do you pay VAT?

Not sure over here in Germany. Plenty of services are exempted from VAT.
The EU has standardized what is tax exempt though. You can read everything which falls under VAT here. The word “service” appears 472 times by the way.
