That the economy is in a shambles is clearly evident from its revenue generating techniques that are mainly loans from various international donor agencies and, by squeezing the public like lemons into obtaining an income, a large chunk of which goes into the welfare of the leaders. What's the use of being one of the most populated countries if you can't use individuals to your benefit, right?
A huge scandal, protracted opposition and debates in the political circles and media over the imposition of RGST, at the behest of the IMF, that aims to squash the resolve of all those, who had misapprehended the situation into believing that being a law-abiding citizen, would prove beneficial for both them and their nation, will ultimately result in a gradual decrease in this species.
What utter benefit is there for the opposition and coalition parties for opposing the reformed version of the tax that packs a much potent punch for the public faces as they are not among those who may feel the aftershocks of this manmade calamity?
Worrying about the public benefit has never been a familiar trait among the political leaders-maybe it's just the fact that the IMF, being the main reason behind the imposition of a tax, does not go down well with them. Isn't this an evident aftermath of the millions of dollars received and spent extravagantly in past years? Is it then, a jolt from the blue? Did not anyone foresee such an eventuality? What workable and acceptable solution is being provided?
