| Message | The National Farmers' Party proposes the only tax paid shall be when buying goods and services. People should be taxed on their consumption as opposed to their hard work. If we want to promote productivity and efficiency by workers, why tax them? Why punish them for working hard? The budget has been adjusted so there is no deficit. |
