Thumbs down Taxes, on luxury, not food or medicine!..

Those that formulate taxable items somehow got their wire cross vices are not neccessary items. In all developed mations that I am aware, food that you are going to eat is not taxable, unless you get served in a retaurant. Medicine is excenpt from all taxes. Apliances and cars,toilet paper tissues and soap shampoo and rinses have lower. Licor and tabasco are hightly taxed. We are dominated by these industires, that are the vices of most Dominican , and poor people go hungry due to high taxes on things that are really neccessary to live.
Luxury tax applies only to certain items, imported shoes, purses and hi fashion. this use to be a 10% for those that realy could aford them.
I enterrred a drug store to purchase medecine, my taxes where outrageous, I spend over six thousand pesos total. How can the poor average worker get medecineor see a Doctor? Whith the low salaries per household, they work to eat.

Default "Let Them Drink Beer"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

To "paraphrase" Marie Antuonette!

The government wants to "pacify" the "poor"!
If they are drunk most of the time,(Which They Are!!!) they won't be thinking about a better life through education,and "Non-Corrupt" government!!

Did you expect anything different?????
