The East is “complicated”, wrote General de Gaulle in his Memoirs. No doubt he ignored the functioning of the municipal tax in Geneva. He is happy to forgive him for his choice to approach him “with simple ideas”. And not simplistic. It is perhaps this nuance that will make the difference in the vote of the Genevans, called to decide on May 18 on the initiative “I live there, I pay there”. Emanating from the UDC, the text leads to a big bang of municipal taxation by eliminating a local specificity: the distribution of taxation between the municipality of domicile and that where we work. Only residence would be faith. No other party supports this version, which however collects the approval of the Federation of French -speaking companies, although the object does not relate to corporate tax.
