Original review summary

The review says the claim that all self-employed workers will pay 26.5% of their revenue is misleading: not all are subject to the regular IBS and CBS regime. It notes that workers may opt for MEI or Simples Nacional, and that nanoentrepreneurs with annual income up to R$40,500 are exempt from consumption taxes unless they opt in.[S1]
