According to the latest EITB DATA report on taxes, one in five euros of the Basque country’s gross domestic product (GDP) goes to paying taxes and the Basque tax burden is below the average for Spain and the European Union. In an interview for Euskadi Irratia’s “Faktoria” program, the Podemos candidate for Deputy General of Gipuzkoa complained that the Basque Country and Madrid compete on taxation to attract the wealthy and multinationals. “We cannot be so attentive to these types of multinationals, their goal is never social, it is not to preserve jobs, nor to ensure the dignity of employees, their only goal is to increase annual benefits and when they achieve that goal don’t make it, they go straight to another country,” he added.
Watch Echeveste believes that the tax model of the PNV and PSE-EE “it’s not fair or progressive” and begs to change it. “We believe it is important to put a spin on the issue, our aim cannot be to compete with Isabel Díaz Ayuso,” he said.
You think it’s essential radically change the tax system. “In this system, our institutions receive income mainly from the social majority, from the income of the workers, and not so much from capital, from the highest incomes and from companies. Those taxes must be touched,” he stressed.
The representative of Podemos welcomes the start of the dialogue between the PNV and PSE-EE to change the tax system, but she sees electoral overtones in this announcement and wonders why this debate did not come to the fore a year or a few months ago order has come. In addition, he denounced that they will not discuss the substance of the reform until after the elections and has not given any details about their intentions.
