Wouter Duyck wrote that he was a civil servant and author and had a company. According to him, the net tax on income from writing or performing was until recently 7.5 percent. Although the cost allowances had since been adjusted, he stated that writers and performers still only paid about 15 percent tax on income up to 77,000 euros.

Guillaume Herblot criticized the proposal he attributed to Antoine Léaument during an intervention on BFM TV, according to which insurers should "bear" the damage caused to shop windows, buses, and town halls. He accused Léaument's camp of having left responsible individuals for these degradations on the street. Herblot considered that the costs would be passed on to policyholders through increased premiums, including those for municipalities, businesses, and individuals who did not cause any damage. He also predicted that the repetition of claims could make certain city centers difficult to insure, raise deductibles, and increase the costs of municipal contracts. He described the proposal as a transfer of costs from the perpetrators of the degradations to the contributors. #Économie #Assurance #Politique (translated)
