LET'S MAKE TAXATION STRAIGHT, SAFE AND SIMPLE- EMELINO T MAESTRO

ETM is so sorry to report that many Local Government Units (LGUs) having jurisdiction over your businesses committed and still commit an unfair/unacceptable mistake against all the Taxpayers.

For example, the RETAILERS in Quezon City whose net sales per annum do not exceed P400,000 shall get/pay a tax rate of 2.20% thereof while those whose annual net sales that exceeded the said threshold shall get/pay a preferential tax rate of 1.10%.

THIS IS AN ANTI-POOR ORDINANCE. IT CLEARLY VIOLATED “THE RULE OF TAXATION MUST BE UNIFORM AND EQUITABLE. THE CONGRESS SHALL EVOLVE A PROGRESSIVE SYSTEM OF TAXATION” constitutional doctrine. The Philippine Supreme Court defined the term ‘PROGRESSIVE’ as ONE IN WHICH THE TAX RATE INCREASES AS THE INCOME INCREASES. In the above example, the tax rate decreases as the net sales increases which means that all Local Government Units are employing the REGRESSIVE SYSTEM OF TAXATION

Let us make the Local/National Taxation Straight, Safe and Simple. We are brothers and sisters as far as the taxation is concerned. HELP YOURSELF. Let us promote and protect the rights of all the taxpayers. JOIN ETM. Let us file a Legal Petition Notice (protest) to correct this inequity. If we would be ignored, the intervention of the Philippine Supreme Court would be a valid option.

This offer is NOT FOR EVERYONE. Only those who dearly love this Nation may feel the passion to help themselves and their fellow taxpayers whom ETM believes to be you

Photocopy this. Share this. Distribute this to as many taxpayers as you may. This is the beginning of unbinding ourselves from corruption and its bluffing, bullying and bribing.
