Description[?]:
| The Ahmadi Council for Justice and Virtue propose to adjust the government's income tax policy to better address the economic situation of the Imārat-i Ahmādī-yi Sahel/Ahmadi Emirate of Solentia (Solentia). We propose an end to the tax grabbing policies of Emir Wakeem (see here http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=7182&start=760#p181778). This will halve the tax on essential goods and raise the tax threshold from 1000 to 5000. |
