A government law that would tax businesses and use the tax money to clean up polluted rivers would most likely concern which interest group
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/15
Environmental groups would be the most interested as they would
be the groups profiting from this taxation.
Businesses may not desire to have the tax issue levied on their
backs, but it is important to remember that a business can not
actually pay a tax. The end result of taxing a business is to have
that cost of doing business added to the end product price. If that
price becomes noncompetitive, they would need to move to an area
which does not regressively tax or they would need to close down
that business. That would put the business second on the list after
those that would show a profit from the new taxation.
Local citizens would be third on the list as they live in the
given community and it could affect their lifestyle having the
local river changed for better or not.
Fourth on this list would be politicians themselves. They would
be interested or not in this issue depending on what they could
obtain from the tax or vetoing the tax. Failing to adhere to the
local opinion could cost a politician their job.
