Don't know if people heard this or not. But a new tax rate of 34% is being imposed on monitors (tvs and displays)
So, we get taxed on our earnings, this and VAT. A monitor costs us a huge amount. :cry:

"However, monitors bigger than 45cm also attract an additional 25% duty over and above the 7%, which adds a total of 32% onto prices even before monitors hit the shelves and distributors have added their markup to the products."
The reason why i said this is because i know many distributors are increasing them. Even if they "can be avoided", the prices of wholesale is going up and therefore the price of the end user.
"We need this tax money for uhm...governmental purposes. I'm very busy."
It sucks, because people are using monitors as "tv's". Well, I'm not...
read into this tax as "where can we steal more money?"
Yip. Government needs to tap into the public even more, because they are spending(wasting) at such rate, the usual methods can't keep the coffers full anymore.Quote:

If they legalized weed they'd be able to tax all the drug dealers (small to big) and bring in an additional couple of hundred million a year they could snort off their coke-whores breasts... I mean, organize meetings to discuss (and not act on) policy meant to help the economy...
