yes..4-5 bucks from each of us..but that's juz us..we're the
taxpayers in citizen status..u forget the companies and firms that
exists in singapore..?they too pay tax..and they pay much much more
than all of us...does that justify the amount of 4-5bucks..?the
companies maybe be paying 400-500 or 4,000-5,000 or 40,000-50,000
or even 400,000-500,000..but it's worth it for that amount...coz
this government keeps the investment and environment stable for the
company to be here..in a way they are paying for a more stable
location for their investment..and the laws here are fair and
transparent for these companies..
in some other countries they have to pay a big majority of their
profits to the government and the percentage of this tax varies
according to the greed of the officials...if u're a
businessman...u'll start thinking how to keep ur money
safe...Singapore is proudly one of the better places in the world
right now..and our current government has made it that way..people
like u and mi have made it that way..no one is left out..do our
part as a citizen to uphold the environment that we're in and we're
already well on the way to becoming even better every year...
the reason y u're not paying $50 bucks a year is because GST is
to be based on ur spending volume..the more u're able to spend the
more the GST amount..this is a fair system in the world..i hope u
know y the GST is not standard amount..~
take cigerette and alcohol as an example, 10$ per pack,80% for
the tax, go to the government, it's not the malboro company paying
the tax, it's every single citizen paying the tax, because the the
money company got come from each citizen, how many people in
singapore about 4,000,000, how many midium size, and large sized
company in singapore, i think it's about thousand, maybe 2000, so
how is paying the tax, still the citizen. true?
