| Date | 20:37:24, January 10, 2008 CET | From |  Ma'avak | To | Debating the Income tax proposal of July 2514 |
| Message | "We agree in a change in taxes but feel the lowest threshold has been to set too high. Whilst we cannot let the foreign elite rape this country we too cannot allow poverty to become a desired goal. By removing tax on those with less than 60,000 BEI it will mean that they will earn a net income higher than those making over 60,000 BEI and as such we shall be no nearer to the equality our parties strive for." -- Josef Nehushtan OOC: Probably... It's hard to work out how the economic system on here works but 60,000 seems quite high. |
