Law proposals

Day 670, 14:22 Published in Serbia Hungary by montaigne

Dear All,

IRL congressman of the opposition parties are often making use of cheap populism, especially when it is about social spendings. When you are in the opposition, things are looking so simple: the government should be able to finance everything from nothing. In my eyes being in the opposition does not mean, that I could be iresponsible.

For the last two months Serbia had a enteprise-friendly economy and that was the right thing to do, since the country was ruined by the TO-s. We were slowly reborning from our own ashes.

We have made a long way in a short time. But now we may face new challenges.
In the recent war we could see, that important battles may only be won by involving tanks and by spending huge amounts of Gold. During the recent battle of Slavonia (and in Canada) we could see that besides MPP-s the Golds made the difference.

In Slavonia we were in a fortunate situation, since the battle was not on our own ground. We could not loose our territory, it was not a question of life and death to win the battle at any price.

But imagine now, that tomorrow we will need to fight for Vojvodina. I am sure, that each of us would invest their last money on the fight, but in order to win, we would also need the PEACE tanks. Someone must pay for their Wellness Packages and for their Q5 weapons. From what money?

And here we are: I am convinced, that for the Security of our country we need to increase our taxes a bit. My aim is to have the lowest possible increase.

We can argue wheather is it better to increase on VAT (on consumption) or in Income Tax (on production). My belief is that it is better to increase taxes on VAT, since the combination of unchanged Income Tax and the increased VAT would perhaps encourage the export of certain products (why not on black channels).

I am going to propose a TAX increase after a short debate. I kindly ask the members of the congress to VOTE YES on my proposals. VOTE YES for STATE SECURITY!

Thank you
