@BwalaDaniel@seunokin@ruffydfire Don’t you have any other thing to discuss about other than Peter Obi? Can’t you amplify the good work this administration is doing?
@Evilgenius222@AmmarKazmi How fair is the system to high earners? If anyone earning £21k pays no tax and still has access to childcare, but people paying high taxes have zero benefits.
@AmmarKazmi Why does anyone need a personal allowance if people who are earning minimum wage will pay little to no taxes and still be entitled to income support benefits? but people earning above £50k are slammed with 40% on earnings above the £50k threshold
@linmeitalks You should be taxed on any amount you earn at least 10% for earnings less than £20k, to make you feel like you're contributing to the economy, and also tax people on benefits, as it's done in most EU countries.
@thelittleidiots@TommyCockles8@PolitlcsUK I do not think I deserve more money, but I feel paying taxes is an equal responsibility, and we normally frown on billionaires who avoid paying taxes.
@Brucey393@PolitlcsUK So do people who also work hard to earn well for themselves. We need to build a system that encourages people to earn more money and also improves the standard of living in general.
@Brucey393@PolitlcsUK I get you Shaun, but they should be able to contribute to taxes, and they won't pay the same taxes as someone earning high. Someone earning £20k a year only pays taxes on £7k thereabouts which is equal to nothing as they can still claim benefits on top of that, so zero taxes.
@TommyCockles8@PolitlcsUK The benefits are limited to just very little for high earners while low income earners pays little to zero tax and still enjoy more the same infrastructure as people paying high taxes. Everyone needs to contribute to taxes, even if it's little.
@dammiedammie35 This is the problem: you are not doing Peter Obi or anyone else any favour if all you want is a better country, so he doesn't owe you any thanks. You will benefit from a better Nigeria.
The moment you are expecting a reward for doing the right thing, it means you are taking it.
@tobyasky He positioned himself really well by starting that podcast show. I really admired his courage, as most African players disappear after retirement, and you'll only see them on Supersport occasionally.
