    I would rather see the revenue sources sorted thus:
    1) licences and user fees
    2) specific sales taxes
    3) general sales taxes
    4) corporate income taxes
    5) individual income taxes
    6) property taxes
    7) inheritance taxes (not included ?!)

    … preferring to see the most % revenue from the former and the least from the latter.
    Ideally, income taxes and property/inheritance taxes should be ZERO.

    Such a revenue structure would better incentivize capital accumulation (savings) and disincentivize capital consumption.

    It’s clear from this chart that corporate taxes are too low most places.
