I keep reading this crap and wonder if they even realize what words they are spewing out of their mouths...very distressing to see how they are just going to brush it off and ignore it. RPT on my home will be in the neighbourhood of $12,000 this year...scares the crap out of me as to how I am going to pay it...guess I should just not bother apparently. Thank you Mr. Halkitis...after all, I am enduring some hardships and will be unable to pay my just due taxes. According to your logic...and everyone else in government...both fnm and PLP...we won't be coming after you anyways...and legal action is always the very last resort...so hey...I'm cool!!

So easily overlooked...forgot that little gem that all MP's and Senators are already meant to disclose all this information with the Public Disclosures Act...ironically they are all behind in their submissions....by a decade or two...

Would not dare be behind on taxes or utilities...people like me would be disconnected or fined faster than you can blink...I'm not in that privileged PLP buddy buddy arena...I'm more the arch enemy...they'd find any excuse to hold my feet to the fire so I don't give them any...in the meantime my upstanding payment of taxes is bearing the burden of them letting it slide. Bullcrap!!

Gawd I hope VAT does indeed go bye bye...bad bad bad news. We just need to beat this mindset in people's heads...even the dimwits in parliament that you need to pay your bills...quit trying to raise the taxes in hopes that the upstanding and honest citizens will bear the load and pay what they are supposed to while everyone else keeps getting a free ride.

Do it do it do it...you already have Leslie Miller running scared with his tail between his legs...knowing his track record with BEC bills, I can only imagine his track record with real property tax and business licenses and such. I can guarantee there are tax dodgers on both sides of the fence. This is not a PLP or and FNM thing or vendetta...I want the pople to see just how much money is owed to the treasury by our very own people in power, the MP's and Senators, and then once all that is cleared, THEN we can maybe start talking about if VAT is necessary. I am not going to subject myself to the whack of VAT when people in high places and with big pockets and big mouths don't pay their damn bills.

Mr. Lightbourne ain't got nothing on Leslie Miller...Miller owes more than that for just his BEC bills...why do you think he was so adamant in the other tabloid that he does NOT want any of the tax information released...Willing to bet, all told, between property tax and BEC bills, that man probably owes closer to a million than a measly 100K.

Yeap...we are MAJOR honest full tax paying citizens...the government gets millions out of our family and group each and every year in all the various taxes...paid in full...but we are carrying the debt load for all those ducking and dodging...so no...I'm not gonna be adding VAT into my mix so we can let the 'special ones' slide on by,

...it's the current culture...can I use that as an excuse when the tax man comes at me when I do not pay this years RPT bill? I'll just explain to him nicely that everyone is doing it, even our politicians in power...past and present...so until they are squeaky clean, I'll just hold back on mine for a little while.

Sounds like a plan!!
