Jamaicans are being slammed left, right, front, back and center with taxes imposed by the government. My heart goes out to especially the little man who has a little shop trying to make ends meet in order to survive. Many of them now have to close their little business because the business cannot pay for the taxes charged and once the door is open the taxes are due. Because they cannot pay the taxes they have no other option, therefore they have to close the business.

Charging taxes is one thing but if no one see where the money is going is another thing. Why the poor people are being taxed for everything but the money obtained from taxes is not being to help them. With so many people not working or cannot find anything to do closing their little business will only cast a bad reflecting on the country and this is not good. The country will also have more people that are unemployed and are idle with nothing to do on the streets.
