An alternative minimum tax was established, along with a slight increase in gasoline taxes, but both were so watered down that they barely add up to anything. According to the government’s own figures, they equal just 1% of GDP – a pathetic increase in an economy with one of Latin America’s lowest tax takes.
另一种可选择的最低税务标准被建立起来，同时汽油税也略有上调。但这两项税制改革都被冲淡得几乎起不到什么实质性的作用。据政府自己的数据统计，它们只相当于GDP的1%&#45;&#45;作为拉美税收最低的经济体之一，这点提高是微不足道的。
