Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A 'sin tax' is a form of tax applied to products or activities which are considered harmful to society, such as tobacco and alcohol. It does not directly relate to allowing companies to release pollutants into the air without consequence. However, it does not specifically allow for the other options listed (B, C, D), which involve not disclosing pollution, not covering costs, or facing criminal charges. The concept of a 'sin tax' is more about discouraging certain behaviors through financial penalties rather than permitting harmful environmental practices.
