| Message | Mr. Speaker, This Bill will provide Rutania with a simpler and fairer Tax system. It will lift some of the tax burden off Rutanians on low incomes and only slightly adjust the upper brackets. We suggest this is a pragmatic alteration to our revenue streams. Lester Lynch, Democratic Socialist Front Parliamentary Leader. |
