Ok. Cut off all subsidies for sia.

 

[aabbccddeeffgg]

I got a few suggestions for Mr Cheese Tart

cancel all foreign scholarships
Implement higher second and subsequent property tax and ABSD
implement tiered COE for second and subsequent cars in a household
Implement capital gains tax for sale of property within 10 years of purchase
Reduce subsidies to zombie companies which we know has no trickle down effect
Increase all fees for foreigners by 20%
Increase income tax for foreigners further
Increase employment tax for foreigners
Reduce subsidies for SIA, can save hundreds of millions, their pilots don’t fly but still earn several times higher than median pay


So many possible routes to take to boost their fiscal position, don’t always tekan the mass population who are trying to survive..

Sinkies take public transport

Sinkies pay for public transport subsidies

Fiscal burden where?

What about fiscal burden of billions spent on new buses to replace old ones that haven't spoilt yet?

RAISE THE ******* CORPORATE TAX RAHS!

Corporations and smes all profit massively from FTs and cheap labor.
It's tiem they contribute fairly to the infrastructure which enables their FTs and cheap labor to go to work for them.

Ebrything needs monies to run.

If chuir corporate taxes ish one of the most lowest on the world it means tax burden ish shifted to others including peasants instead of rich corporations and businesses and towkays.

And it also means compared to other ****ries the corporations and businesses and towkays are not paying their fair share of maintaining the systems.

And no, pls no BS me the unproven boogeyman that if raise corporate taxes there will become huge unemployments! There may be some higher unemployments and a few business may fold, but there wouldn't be massive unemployments!

[Clearnfc]

Can subsidise 100 million for SBS (they just announce their 79 million profit), cannot subsidise transport for sinkies??

 

[Tony.Manero]

How about reducing salaries and bonuses of those higher ups in transport industries??? Surely that will reduce need for higher transport subsidies?
