Just like NIB, VAT and NHI will be another slush fund for the Government who have yet to exercise fiscal responsibility with what's coming in now. Tax away.....!
When since does the fact that there are poor Bahamians out there who cannot afford it ever stopped the Government from taxing our arses off! Get real! It was never about "the poor Bahamian".
The only reason I could see for this asinine announcement that "we comin to get ya" is because they hopin' the people would run elsewhere to save the cost in repatriations. Unfortunately we know the nature. They ain't going nowhere! Only in the bush or on some Cay 'til things die down. It's happening in the capital and Abaco will be no different.
The Government and Mr. Mitchell need stay the course. They didn't cave in when the detractors showed up after November 1st, 2014 so I'm sure they won't cave in now. The noise will eventually subside when these idiots see we ain't flinching.
I also agree. I read the new booklet that Customs put out for the 2015 Customs duties and could not believe it. They are actually taxing the tax. It's ridiculous. Either collect a customs duty or VAT but it should not be both! It's highway robbery!!!
