Which terms best describe sales tax? check all that apply. direct indirect regressive progressive proportional

The answer is Sales Tax can be described as Indirect and Regressive. It is indirect because the retribution that the consumer is going pay is collected by the seller, who acts as an intermediary between the people and the government and then is handed to the government (contrary to the direct type in which the taxation amount goes directly into the government's arks).
