| Message | The Democratic party introduced the new tax rates on Luxury and Essential goods about 1 year ago which we supported and still support . However we propose to change that a tiny bit to bring us in surplus again. The original value for essential goods was 5% which was lowered to 3%. The rate will still be lower than the orginal 5% |
