MessageWe need less needless taxes, not more. What, pray tell, is the money for?

Date15:11:43, August 09, 2007 CET
FromUnited Reformation Party
ToDebating the Sales Tax Bill
MessageFor starters our Trade and Industry sectors are in dire need of funding increases, not to mention Food and Agriculture and Defence. Furthermore, we don't feel that a 10% Luxury Sales Tax and a 5% Sales tax on essential goods is excessesive or unreasonable.

FromCommon Party
ToDebating the Sales Tax Bill
MessageThe Common Party feels 'Luxuries' are unnecessary and recommends the tax be set to 100% to effectively ensure the bourgeois pay their fair share.

Date08:18:49, August 11, 2007 CET
FromNational Liberty Party
ToDebating the Sales Tax Bill
MessageOur government is currently operating at BAR$23.8 million surplus. Any additional taxes on our citizens are unreasonable and excessive, period. Let's keep our hands out of the People's pockets.

Date02:50:42, August 12, 2007 CET
FromCohesive Socialism Party
ToDebating the Sales Tax Bill
MessageThe fact that our citizens have lived under a system without taxes is a testament to the wonder of this nation. However, such minor increases for a non-taxing rate are acceptable in the minds of our party. Hopefully, the introduction of these minor taxes hikes can be coupled with a large push towards publically funding many of our social services (health, education) that are currently susceptible to the corporate world.

The CSP approves.
