OK bare with me here:
Browsing facebook see this link. From what I can gather, the Robin Hood Tax is a tax system that is only implemented to banks. Now that the banks have been rescued by the general public's taxes they are considered to be stable and becoming wealthier and hence this tax is discussed. They are charged a fee per transaction that is not to the general public ie military. This percentage is 0.01% which is surprisingly a lot for a multi million pound transactions that occur between banks and businesses .. anyway.. This money is then given to poorer people to help them out
It seems too good to be true? But surely this will have repercussions on the banks, giving worse interest rates on accounts, and higher loan interest rates etc...
Someone want to fill in the blanks? Is this good or bad?
