espada ni damocles

September 1st, 2005 · No Comments

i browsed inq7.net just before i leave the office at nakakagulat ang banner story na nakita ko, SC upholds legality of e-VAT. ala akong nasabi kundi, tang ina!

ano ba yan? ala na bang marunong mag-isip sa atin? i’m not against the government earning a little bit more, as they have projected (based on the 2006 budget), the budget deficit will be at PhP124.9 billion and they expect to collect additional revenues through e-vat by PhP78 billion. but the problem is that the one who will be directly hit by this tax is the ordinary people, whom they pay so low.

eto pa ang catch, next year ay pwedeng dagdagan ni madam gloria ang vat mula 10% para maging 12%. tang ina talaga! parang espada ni damocles na nakatutok sa ulo natin at sa isang kumpas ni madam glo ay tatarak sa dati ng naghihirap na mamamayan!
