Tariff Changes Shift Duty Burden and Free Trade Path
The new tariff lowers duties on farm products and trims levies on manufactures. Exports total 2466 millions with 45 per cent foreign trade per capita. Nearly 67 per cent of imports may be free under the reform, leaving about one third dutiable and taxes on that smaller portion reduced. Revenue loss to be offset by a federal income tax starting at 1 percent, rising to 7 percent for very high incomes.
