Federico Sturzenegger asked businessmen not to ask him to lower taxes, but to lower spending. Given this, the Chamber of Distributors and Wholesale Self-Services demanded that other mandatory charges be lowered.
Given the statements of the Minister of Deregulation to the business sector, about the impossibility of lowering taxes to achieve fiscal balance, from the Argentine Chamber of Distributors and Wholesale Self-Services (CADAM)they insist on eliminate mandatory contributions unnecessary so that there is greater production and work.
“Don’t ask us to lower taxes anymore, because if you ask us and the expense remains the same, someone has to be charged for it. Ask us to lower the expense. Please banish and cross it out, support us in this exercise of lowering expenses,” he stated. the Minister of Deregulation, Federico Sturzeneggeras the axis of the message to the business world.
In response, wholesalers expressed their full support for the flexibility of working hours and establish a single criterion for paying labor lawsuits, but they asked for “chainsaw of inexplicable mandatory contributions like INACAP“, which does not represent a benefit because no employee is trained every month or has never done so, but the employer must contribute it equally since 2008 for each registered worker, which in the commercial agreement is 1.2 million (the largest joint of the country).
Sturzenegger IDEA
ANDn September and October the employer contribution even increased to $4,278.10, when the minister had anticipated that he was considering making it optional. “We want greater production and work and for that, we must cut these types of contributions, for which there is no public accountability, to understand what they do with the more than $60 billion that would be collected per year,” they indicated from the sector.
On the other hand, wholesalers assure that if the VAT is lowered for basic food products, which make up the basic basket, “There would be greater sales and that would offset the collection.”
“Lowering taxes does not mean collecting less, because more is sold and the same is collected.” They spoke from CADAM and added: “those that cannot sustain the balance are the companies, with increases in costs and a drop in sales.”
