Answer to Question 1

Yes, it would be possible for an increase in taxation to decrease GDP. Higher levels of taxation would provide an incentive for more individuals and business to attempt to avoid taxation either legally or illegally. Such illegal activities would lead to an increase in the underground economy but a decrease in GDP.
