TAXATION IS BETTER THAN BORROWING_DR.HASSAN AYARIGA

Fellow Ghanaians, going forward as a nation in indebtedness, “Do We continue to BORROW or Do WE TAX? I believe we have gotten to the crossroad where borrowing is not an option anymore but taxation is the best option for us now. We need to widen our tax network and institute proper channels to collect tax properly. We cannot continue to borrow. We have to move from borrowing to production, manufacturing and taxation. Nations are better off when its citizens decide to contribute towards its development. The Taxes we pay should be used to build Schools, Roads, hospitals, homes and infrastructure etc.

Now my Question is, can we trust the Government to make good decisions with our Taxes? We need roads, Hospitals, schools, housing projects etc.

This country is suffering due to the loud silence from the Clergy, Peace Council and some civil society organisations whose voices have always been loud enough at other times but have suddenly gone to sleep and not awaken. What has changed? Let us all rise above pettiness and greed. Let us speak truth to power and save our country from sinking.
