They are now asking the government to reconsider it.
{This is exactly the kind of news we need because this shows how the democratic countries can move forth and oppose such things, not always the tax is legit if served by the government during such times}
When politicians glimpse a new way to enrich the government safe boxes, they surely will try to perpetuate the "operandis mode". During this Pandemic period society faced and faces a roll of economic changes which appeared to improve or to get worse the financial relations among citizens and companies.
In this case spefically, anyone could predict that governments would have to compensate the huge expenses with the virus. So, on my thoghts, they targeted whatever they consider superfluous activities and then overtaxed those.
For sure, now is time for governments review this Pandemic Economic Model before it regret or paralize economies!
