Santo Domingo.- President Danilo Medina will unveil his fiscal  proposal, next week which is expected to raise the tax burden from 13% to 15% and the taxes on high end income, Economy minister Temistocles Montas told Spanish reporters Thursday night.

Speaking in the National Palace with 21 reporters, the official said expressed his concern with Spain’s crisis and hopes it recovers quickly.

Montas said the tax reform will have to increase the tax burden -now at 13%- one of the region’s lowest. “That's the only way to balance the economy and have the resources needed to satisfy the social demands.”

When will he Demand that Felix "Sticky Fingers" Bautista and Lie-onel "The Best Friend a Spanish Narco Ever Had" Fernandez account for the disappeared $130,00,000 million dollars of the SUNLAND LOAN!

NOW that really would be "Fixing What's Wrong and Doing What Has Never Been Done!"

Manito I think they were a little bit more than rumors, they should have at least been investigated and not dismissed conveniently with a Bull Shit statement that those those presenting the complaint before the court had no standing!

"Montas said the tax reform will have to increase the tax burden -now at 13%- one of the region’s lowest. “That's the only way to balance the economy and have the resources needed to satisfy the social demands.”

No way can you fully provide a real educational opportunity for all Dominicans, and provide for all the other necessary services of a modern nation-state with such low tax burdens, 13%!! At a minimum, the Tax burden should be in the 20-25% zone with strong oversight.

I've said it many times before, taxation is the price we pay for Civilization. The lack of institutional strength and our weak State is due to its poverty and lack of professionalism. Yes, we do have massive corruption, but even that difficult impediment IS NOT sufficient to justify such low levels of taxation for national development purposes. And this is so in many Latin american nation-states, not just in the context of DR. DR just happens to be among the most egregious cases in LA.

As he said "the region's lowest tax "That is to the rich's convenience to keep it that low. as not to
pay their due taxes.They also keep it that low to atract investments,so they think, without the propper national police security .
I agree with Atabey it should be in the 20-25 % zone. That will bring them up to the 21st century.

NO NEW TAXES!

Until there is full accounting of double dippers, self appointed pensions, secret payrolls, pork barrels, do nothing jobs, the $130,00,000 dollars Sunland Loan, all the overpriced bull shit construction projects where Felix Bautista and Lie-onel Fernandez stole millions of dollars from and last but not least the wasted money on the USELESS METRO!

Yes, of course, all other countries FIRST have zero corruption BEFORE they vote in higher taxes!
