Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Consumption taxes, such as excise taxes or sin taxes, are imposed by governments to discourage the consumption of certain products, like tobacco, alcohol, or sugary drinks, which have negative health or social consequences. The revenue collected from these taxes can be used to offset the costs of healthcare, law enforcement, environmental damage, or other consequences associated with the use of these products. Other taxes like income, property, or value-added taxes, are not specifically linked to the use or consumption of a particular product.
