[/i]Goods and Services Taxation Bill[/i]

1. The federal government shall introduce a Goods and Services Tax at rates determined by the Treasury Department, alhough advised by the senate to be 0% for neccessities, 10% for luxuries and 5% for other goods and services.

2.To determine the category each good or service is placed in, the Treasury Department will be given $5 million over 2 years to fund staff and resources to analyse need, benefit to our economy, and other factors of it's choosing for all goods and services.

3.After the Treasury department determines the placement of goods and services into catergories, this bill shall take effect.

Very much a working draft; I'd appreciate comment from other Senators, Sec. Kramer, and other Atlasians on this bill in the discussion thread for introduced Legislation. I will also be working on a bill for income and business taxation following the guidelines I gave in my campaign.
