Which of the following, if true, is the most logical completion of the argument below?
The tax system of the Republic of Grootland encourages borrowing by granting its taxpayers tax relief for interest paid on loans. The system also discourages saving by taxing any interest earned on savings. Nevertheless, it is clear that Grootland’s tax system does not consistently favor borrowing over saving, for if it did, there would be no______
(A) tax relief in Grootland for those portions of a taxpayer’s income, if any, that are set aside to increase that taxpayer’s total savings
(B) tax relief in Grootland for the processing fees that taxpayers pay to lending institutions when obtaining certain kinds of loans
(C) tax relief in Grootland for interest that taxpayers are charged on the unpaid balance in credit card accounts
(D) taxes due in Grootland on the cash value of gifts received by taxpayers from banks trying to encourage people to open savings accounts
(E) taxes due in Grootland on the amount that a taxpayer has invested in interest-bearing savings accounts
题目也不是很懂,
为了刺激投资,对贷款利息免税,对存款利息收税。但该政策不会长久,因为会:
A,woule be no tax relief on 纳税人用于升值的存款。
我觉得没有relief on incomes也没有关系啊,就是这样才会鼓励人们投资嘛,就像国内的利息税。
而且后面四个选项都读不懂……
请帮忙,谢谢 |
