Opposition Party SaS Proposes Economic Restart Plan with 19% Flat Tax

Opposition party Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) unveiled an economic reform package aimed at boosting Slovakia's economic growth. The plan includes eliminating the transaction tax, returning to a 19 percent flat tax system, and introducing zero corporate tax on profits that companies reinvest into their businesses. Freedom and Solidarity is a liberal opposition party that previously implemented similar flat tax policies when it was part of the governing coalition in the early 2010s. The proposals represent a significant departure from the current tax structure under the ruling coalition led by Smer-SD, which has favored more progressive taxation policies since returning to power.
