Rome, Nov. 8 (LaPresse) – “Cutting taxes cyclically reappears in the electoral promises of the Right. In three years of Giorgia Meloni’s government, the exact opposite has happened. Tax pressure was 41.7% of GDP in 2022; in 2025 it has risen to 42.8%. This is the highest level in the past ten years. In practice, this year Italian families and businesses will pay 25 billion euros more than they would have if tax pressure had remained at 2022 levels. These are the facts. Talk is useless.” This is what the PD’s Economy spokesperson Antonio Misiani wrote on X, reposting Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s post on the wealth tax.
