Searched for the word in the manifestos of the three main political blocks but didn’t find it. It’s not in the 15 key measures of the MSM/ML alliance although it was there in the social contract of the Lepep Alliance in 2014 when there were only 12 key measures. That’s a pretty bad sign when you add surveillance state and the flat tax.
What was not difficult to find was the French word for sugar. It popped up fast at least a few times in each one of them. So these three parties will keep us mired in a low-growth trap for the next few years if we vote for them. We don’t have to.

Year in year out, ''Flat tax and sithanen'' as if the current F.M and the current decision to maintain the low fiscal rate is invisible to you …
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, thanks to Ganoo we will have creole in parliament -- the perfect tool for creating a thinking-person's Mauritius
It’s a fundamental problem that needs to be kept on the front-burner. I think what’s invisible is that you don’t see that I constantly call for raising top tax rates to make the tax structure sustainable. Definitely can’t call it the Bheenick flat tax, the Fawkes flat tax or the Ringadoo flat tax can I?
ReplyDeleteGod bless Ganoo for this.
How will you have my socks? Al dente?

Well, what's surely invisible to almost all voters - you alike, unfortunately - is the fact that flat tax is just a piece of that toxic puzzle. All mainstream political parties are funded by black money coming from oligarchy's large conglomerates (remember MK's kess nwar?), to take power, and in turn kill off their competition (selling off Apollo for peanuts - to whom? Keeping a dead sugar industry on perpetual serum of endless subsidies and 'competitively' depreciated rupee, setting corporate tax from 35% to 15%, effectively only 3% in most cases for offshore ones...) and ensuring to fund their electoral campaign again. Orange, blue, red or violet is irrelevant.
The aim?
It's about maintaining their exclusive grip over their privilege - one group is vying to maintain their sense of entitlement to not having to mingle with the populace, and the political Sirdar elite wanting to ape their masters... it's just that simple.
If that's invisible to you, well you really need to switch off from the rwé-idiot-wou-Âne/rajio-sousou, for a start...
