Our beloved incompetent government
TAX – A MUST READ
Before we get to the must read topic of the day, I wish to remind you about the 2 hour Treoc Way Introduction Seminars in Pretoria on 1 Feb and Johannesburg on 2 Feb in the evenings. Phone 0860020406 to book your seat at only R200 per person. If you book before 12h00 tomorrow, you get a free copy of my latest book “See the Light or see the Hole”.
Ai… Ai… Aikona!
I hope you don’t mind me mailing the following story to you, but this came across my desk this morning and I think this is a matter of national interest. I have no idea who the author is, but it is good enough to be shared. Here goes:
“I think, and I am sure that many of you are the same, that the tolls are a disgrace, both the extortionate toll fees themselves and also the widely published fact that we are expected to pay up to R18 BILLION over the next 10 years just to collect the toll fees. I wanted to share the clarity of thought in this mail and agree that I will not be installing anything on my car.
They are not going to have easy access to my bank account – they say they want a debit order – forget it. Send me a bill (by registered mail) every time.
Together we can make this whole thing fail – as it should. Let the toll gates stay there, not working, as monuments to people power. Let’s call this the start of the SA Awakening, look what the normal people are achieving in North Africa with the Arab Awakening.
I hope this goes around at least a billion times.
Taxes and Open Road Toll Fees
People should not install the transponders but still use the highways and force the government to issue accounts and summonses to all motorists until such time they drop the prices. The government will be forced to send out millions of accounts every month and they don’t have the manpower to do it. This is the best and easiest way to boycott the system.
What is the government going to do about motorists from other neighboring countries that don’t have these transponders? South Africans are too complacent and its time we fight back.
WE have paid for these roads. Now they are also proposing a 1% tax to fund the SABC.
Circulate this to all your friends!!!!!!!!
Has anyone thought just how much tax we are already paying?
a. 35% on your salary
b. 14% on everything you buy (bar fresh produce) and services rendered.
c. Carbon tax if you buy a new car (besides the 14% VAT you have to pay)
d. Tax on the fuel you put in your car to run it.
e. Toll on our roads –
For some it is going to come to a whopper of 10% of your salary (If you earn R10 000.00 a R1 000 would go toward tolling if you migrate between PTA and JHB every day.) – Bully to try and pacify me with the idea that I can claim it back from my income tax!!! I have to fork out the money first. Going on holiday to DBN? Remember to save up your R1000.00 for tolling.
To say the least – For every R10.00 you earn, the government is already taking approx R6.00 and .........................
