In this episode, we discuss the question: “Should you have to pay a tourist tax to visit popular places?” You’ll hear real examples from the U.S. and London and learn six practical chunks that are perfect for discussions about money, fairness, and public policy: levy, subsidize, deter, modest, redress the balance, and vote with their feet. You’ll also get a short scenario-based task to help you practise using this language naturally in your own answers.
