So VAT has failed in MANY Caribbean countries that have similar characteristics to ours...we are the ONLY country moving to VAT that does not already have some other tax structure like income tax already in place. He is now saying the legislation may not be out until the end of February and we are meant to have everything in place to go live 4 months later? They are off their rocker. By all means, look at the other countries that are a close fit to our economy and make up, and compare...LEARN from those around you that VAT does NOT work effectively...oh, but wait...we should just ignore all these other examples around us cause the rest of them are full of crap and don't know how to run a government properly...as if we do...our government structure is an absolute archaic joke, and they are wanting to leapfrog into VAT which requires heavy reporting, tracking, accountability and the technology to back it. Bull crap. We couldn't be ready for a VAT set up for YEARS...let alone 4 months. Idiots.
...and yet people are buying it!! People are still voting thinking the either the govt or the people got the better deal over CWC...you can't make this crap up...they are so blindfolded and delusional, they will believe anything these jokers are saying. Some poor soul is now jumping up and down in anticipation of his mortgage relief being fulfilled...good luck with THAT one!!
Another one of those great elections promises fullfiled...they are now trying to evaluate if they have the money to try do it all over again...they don't...that's why we are getting jammed with VAT...another empty election promise that was just used to get into the voters heads...which are apparently as empty as the promises.
Hell yeah...businesses will be closing up shop right left and center instead of having to try to deal with VAT. PGC better have some GOOD ideas up his sleeve for employment. More than likely a lot of supermarkets and convenience stores and other everyday type of business will disappear. According to our brainiacs in the government seats, VAT will be rolled out come hell or high water come July 1st regardless of what anybody says...they are not 'listening'...businesses only have a few months left to settle their business and close their doors...mark my words.
Definitely wrong headline for the story...so VAT has failed in MANY Caribbean countries that have similar characteristics to ours...we are the ONLY country moving to VAT that does not already have some other tax structure like income tax already in place. He is now saying the legislation may not be out until the end of February and we are meant to have everything in place to go live 4 months later? They are off their rocker.

Hey...so long as they pay the employees as per their union contract 'agreement'...they can close the doors and pay the staff their just wages and be done with it. Chances are if they gave notice and remained open up to a specified date, that store would be pillaged of all food and goods that could justifiably be transferred to another KFC location for use. I don't blame the owners one bit...just so long as the staff get their full payments owed to them.
