❌ REMOVE VALUE ADDED TAX The 12% VAT is a heavy burden on every Filipino household. It is a tax on consumption — electricity, fuel, food, medicine — passed directly to the people. 👉 Cutting VAT from 12% to 10%, or removing it entirely, means immediate relief for families struggling with rising costs. 👉 It is a universal solution — unlike selective exemptions that cover only a few medicines or goods, leaving millions still paying more. 👉 It is a moral choice: to prioritize human dignity over fiscal convenience. Yes, government revenue will be affected. But the real question is: Should the deficit be balanced on the backs of the poor? We must demand courage from our leaders: • Address corruption to recover billions lost yearly. • Streamline bureaucracy instead of cutting education or health. • Invest in people, not politics. The VAT is not just an economic issue. It is a test of justice, compassion, and leadership. ✊ Stand with the people. ✊ Remove VAT. #EconomicJustice #RemoveVAT #LeadershipMatters #Philippines Tony Leachon
