South Africa faces tough choice: higher taxes or lower efficiency?
The article looks at how changing tax rates in South Africa can affect the government's revenue and tax efficiency. By using a special tax model, the researchers found that raising tax rates can bring in more money for the government, but it can also make the tax system less efficient. On the other hand, lowering tax rates can make the system more efficient, but it may lead to a decrease in revenue. The study suggests that finding the right balance between collecting enough taxes and keeping the system efficient is important for the country's economic growth.
