Episode 70 : Europe has a tax problem

Taxes on everyday Europeans bring in 13 times more revenue than taxes on wealth. That’s according to a new Oxfam analysis published this week, which reveals that rates on Europe’s richest individuals and corporations have plummeted over the last few decades, while taxes on ordinary citizens, like labour taxes, have all increased. What does this mean for Europeans, and is a fairer tax system possible for Europe’s future?
