Unintended consequences of love

The listening supports the reading with an example of unintended consequences and how serious they are, even if we had though about them

The example is about a government that needs more revenues and decides to increase the taxes. This is the action and there are many consequences. The first one is the obvious one; the government gets more revenues with the increase taxes. The second one which is negative, people can buy less things because the increase of the price. The third one, companies’ incomes decrease because people buy fewer goods and because of this they pay fewer taxes to government and also they have to fire people produce unemployment. So, at the end the government does not get as much incomes as they want because people have no money, no job and companies have no sales resulting in no incomes and therefore no taxes.
