Where we rioting?

[boxy]

I didn't say that. Also she probably didn't mean tax as shown by my example of the banks creating an avenue for people to start borrowing their money which kick the new and used car dealership into high gear as more vehicles both luxury and economy started comming in by the numbers. Another way was to get people to buy or build their own homes instead of waiting on hdc. Incentives like the 2% mortgage program was given via ttmf etc. Mopping up just means in layman terms getting people to use their excess cash which they were saving for the right time and they created ways to make it the right time.

Also an example like children's future education wouldn't be a good one as GATE was in gear around that time.

Nothing wrong with making things i want and need more affordable to encourage me to spend my money. That's a win/win. Money gets spent to stimulate the economy and I get something that I was saving up for anyway.

The raising taxes with nothing to show for it while you telling everybody to band their belly while they still enjoying their tax exemptions is another thing tho. That's hypocrisy to the highest degree.

[boxy]

Agreed but both sides of the aisle will disagree with u as the both enjoy that perk which they claim is the only lucrative perk for a non cabinet mp as they can then sell the vehicle after three years at a profit. Interestingly enough Anand Ramlogan find himself in a bachannal with a range rover he sold before its time while acquiring a new one with same exemptions.

Also what's the big Hola Baloo about a mustang? That cost max $35k USD as opposed to the MP preferred Prado 50k USD the only thing that balloons the price of the mustang when it arrives here is the size of the engine

Op of this thread is a waste of time he was one of then that supporter this government in the last election. Black jacket white jacket

Lol. OK. What you doing tomorrow?

Is there really no school tomorrow? If traffic light I gonna pass through in the morning.

Btw, regardless of what book going on in the gaming industry right now, they are an enemy of our enemy and right now is a time to unite.

If I was in the PNM the one thing I would do would be to make sure that everybody fighting among themselves and unable to unify against me. I would do that by coming on social media and pointing out all the things that those seeking to unify against me are doing wrong. Ye old "divide and conquer" strategy. Please do not fall prey to it. Focus on one battle at a time. Right now we need the numbers to show our dissatisfaction for the budget.

This is the problem, party loyalty/tribal politics. Apparently you're wrong for realising that the previous administration did some shitty stuff and calling them out for it and then realising this administration is doing some shitty stuff and calling them out for it too. So you're supposed to be loyal to one party and hush your mouth when they're doing madness and fire bun anyone else who tries to call them out, but all hell breaks loose for 'your party' if they're in the Opposition, criticizing the same chit they were doing. Hmm, where have I heard that before?

Which tax was raised in the 2017 budget that DIRECTLY affects you?

Also what's the big Hola Baloo about a mustang? That cost max $35k USD as opposed to the MP preferred Prado 50k USD the only thing that balloons the price of the mustang when it arrives here is the size of the engine

The hullabaloo stems not only from the cost, but from the fact that the GoRTT through the Minister of Finance has emphasized their stance on revenue collection in the form of taxation, cutting concessions on certain vehicles and raising taxes on certain classes of vehicles to apparently encourage the purchase of more fuel efficient vehicles, along with everyone sharing the burden, when said MoF purchases 1) a gas guzzling vehicle with a 5.0L engine that would command a couple hundred grand in MVT revenue for the Gov't and 2) avoiding these taxes through his ministerial portfolio. Ironic and hypocritical, to say the least.

What would be funny though, is if he shut us all up by producing documents to show him paying the full price for the vehicle, but I mean, chances are, right?

The tax exemption is across the board for all elected members of parliament and includes councilors and other members of local govt.
I get where u comming from though. I'm still iffy on removing perks cause then the argument could then be if they can loose it then the working man can lose theirs lil company perk be it a staff discount or a free case of company product each month like some companies do.

i think the 2.3 was like 650000 and the 5.0 was 1.3 million or somethimn

i will have to stick with a model car version yes.

[boxy]

Lol austerity taxes? Allyuh really not ready to know what austerity measures entails. Ask your grandparents what the IMF told the then government what needed to be done before they could borrow money.
These fb bloggers and YouTube ppl on kix yes.

[sMASH]

When u see business start to fold up, government mighten eVen get back enough in VAT cause so many people will be Cashless.

The government will be well set, the citizen will not.



To feed the people, they would need work. The economy would need stimulation. This regime of tax solutions will prove to strangle the economy

More people would be pushed under the poverty line, and the badly off will be even worse.



What PNM is doing, is seeking the benefit of the government agencies at the expense of the working class.




When he spoke about spreading the burden on every body, it !will all end up reducing the purchasing power of the working class.

Like when America had trickle down economics, this is trickle down taxation; all will eventually wrote the livelihood of the lower strata

So today's protest was fruitful?
