Please answer this in a paragraph! Thank you!

You have been put in charge of the taxation of the Mars colony. You need to decide how to tax the citizens of the colony. Will you institute a progressive, regressive, or a flat tax on income? Will you institute excise taxes? If yes, what goods and services will you tax and why? Will you institute sales taxes, property taxes, or VAT on goods?

If I were placed in charge of the Mars colony then I would make it a lot different from what the Earth has. I would take the position of a progressive tax on income, I would make sure that everyone gets taxed based on how much they make. I would like to see everyone living in a peaceful society that doesn't scramble for money. I will add excise taxes for only the goods that aren't necessary, such as alcohol and tobacco, I personally want to put it on the things that harm humans so that way they might direct away from the toxic substances. I don't think I will incorporate sales taxes on Mars, there are so many poor people on Earth right now and I know for sure that when I pick something up in the store and it says a price I want it to be THAT price. I feel that sales taxes are kind of greedy and unnecessary. Property tax, on the other hand, is fairly important I will leave that. It funds things around the community and that is handy for expenses when something happens, such as a fire. I also think that I will leave out VAT taxes on goods, I think that people should have less to worry about when they pick something up and look at the price, it shouldn't be an estimated price and then taxes added later.

answer/// there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded;
