The Tax Conundrum

As the much dreaded tax season approaches, I felt the need to understand the fairness of our taxing system. "Tax the richer more, so the poor won't need to pay more taxes". Justice for all? Hardly...

Now, consider this. If someone were to pay 10% more tax than other citizens, would it mean that if his house was on fire, the fire brigade will arrive 10% faster?? Would he be treated 10% better in a public hospital? Does his children get 10 % more education at public schools? You get the idea..

Don't get me wrong. I'm all for this current taxing system as I fall in the lower tax category. It is just a question of fairness and something for those in the higher tax category to think about.

GIVE

Taken off Bill Clinton's book...

Who is happier?
The uniter or the divider
The builder or the breaker
The giver or the taker

I think you know the answer..

New Year Resolution

Research says 80 % of those who make a New Year Resolution, forgets about it after 1 week. Its one week into the new year, have you forgotten yours? Well, I'm proud to say I'm not in that 80 % group. - I still haven't made a resolution
