| Message | Silvia Rossi, PNI Speaker for Finance, The no tax zone is minimal, but not to sound hypocritical as we would have said the same, our main motivation behind the proposal was the fact that all members of society ought to contribute to its infrastructure. Obviously the rich carry a larger burden, but that does not allow some people to not contribute. Especially as they are more likely to use public services than the rich. |
