Tax burden rose '34 billion euros' between 2010 and 2013

(ANSA) - Rome, June 17 - The tax burden on Italians rose by 34 billion euros between 2010 and 2013 according to figures published by small and medium-sized business association Confesercenti Tuesday.
    The increase was driven primarily by a rise in local taxes, which accounted for 20 billion euros of the total, Confesercenti said. The remaining 14 billion euros ended up in central government coffers.
