Sales tax is income elastic; because of this fact, consumers have a higher tax incidence and carry the burden. From this, it has been evidenced that the tax burden is vertically unequitable and can be seen as unfair to the less fortunate.

However, it is important to note that the tax burden is independent of who physically pays the tax. For example, if demand is more inelastic than supply, consumers will carry the burden of the taxes; this is the current case with sales tax. According to research
