Pakistan ends 'luxury tax' on menstrual products, contraceptives. Will prices drop?
In Pakistan, taxes on menstrual products can add up. Activists have long worked to change this. Now a new budget wipes out the 18% sales tax. But questions remain about the impact on prices.
Wait, if the government can just eliminate a luxury tax on these products, whats stopping them from eliminating all taxes on essential items? Are we really better off with less government control or more? (176 characters)
Interesting perspective on this.
