I'm prepared for this aswear ... All it requires is for the atmosphere to be poisoned with bad gas ... then you started buying fresh oxygen mask like buying pure water ... if you buy the adulterated ones, you die ... if you remove your mask you will die ....


Capitalism better be changed before it leads to human extinction......... Too many knowledge for human as a result of ransacking our brains for survival is destructive to our planet, animals, plants and we human ourselves !!
Some of you are so good at pointing fingers at the wrong the problem. What has the government taxing individuals got to do with capitalism? Is capitalism responsible for government wanting to take away your money?

If air was to be sold do you think an individual or a business would pop out and start 'selling'. It's usually the government that does things like that, individuals or businesses cannot do that. So your blame of capitalism is just total ignorance.

Whatever thing you don't like must be blamed on capitalism, forgetting capitalism is basically freedom. Freedom to earna and spend as you wish. Whereas the government is here telling you how to spend.

Most of these things are what they copied from lagos state government, in their so called revenue generation.



How does the government know who listens to radio or watch tv. I can't remember how many times I watched TV in Nigeria or even listened to radio, I did everything on my phone
Trust Nigerian politician, all they want is money and somebody mentioned that there is something called radio license in the law. Nigerians go to school yet are uneducated.

Radio license is supposed to be for people who own radio transmitters/walkie-talkies for use of radio frequency band width: like in USA, most Trucks are equipped with Radio transmitters so that they can communicate to their peers on the road.

Same Igbos that destroyed Nigeria’s destiny with that useless coup of 1966 bringing the Military Hausa/Fulani oligarchs into power? Then you turn around and blame someone else?

Amazing Wealth Tips:

"Become a highly disciplined time manager. There are roughly 168 hours in a week. This surely allows plenty of time for achievement of the many goals we desire to accomplish. Be ruthless with your time. Set aside a few minutes each morning to plan your day. Plan around your priorities and focus on not only those tasks which are immediate but not important (i.e., many telephone calls) but especially on those which are important but not urgent, for these allow for the greatest personal and professional development.

Important but not immediate activities are those which produce long-term, sustainable benefits and include exercise, strategic planning, the development of relationships and professional education.

Never let the things which matter most be placed in the backseat as compared to those that matter least". It is called priority. Ensure you prioritise your daily, weekly and monthly activities, to ensure you achieve maximum balance in your financial goals.

So, it's Government that selling you the drugs you are using and the IVF being passed into your body when you loses body fluid ... I'm not ignorant.... Capitalism puts power in the hands of people that are Knowledgeable.... Many people will die because not many people will be able to cope with advancement in Human and her technological breakthrough fuelled by the desire to beat Competition and possessed competitive advantage over rivals ...

Capitalism is good , it will definitely lead to human extinction due to constant search for knowledge to surpassed competition,

constant search for funding for Government and individual activities ...

Also, the world is hot now and that's Capitalism for you....

Capitalism is just Business, It doesn't have regard for Humanity if not controlled and diluted with elements of socialism.... I see many people committing suicide as their brain get tired and can't cope with constant changes in world affairs ....

Now, if not for Capitalism, who ask residents to pay 200K for Radio and TV licenses in this very hard time that Onion has become Bitcoin .... But Government also find it hard too so they need money .... How will they get money to fund Government activities and pay salaries , Tax people more and more ... The more people find life difficult, the more they find life unnecessary and Gbam "Suicide" ....

Money that supposed to come to the street for people are being channelled to researching next best product ...

Bring your products out make Billions ....become an Overnight Billionaire ... Money for 1million people only get pocketed by just 10 persons ...

Money that Only Dangote alone control can feed 10 states in Nigeria .... If not for Capitalism, how can Dangote be that Rich while many are impoverished and Dangote still get tax waivers , Tax Holiday, and Concessions while an Okada and Marwa man pay to and fro ....

Capitalism is good but it's becoming dirty and unhealthy ... Nothing last forever ... it is getting to its peak and highly threatening to Earth itself ... Ozone layer is depleting , Global Warming due to competition among Industries.... and Sophisticated research to cornered the earth to themselves by Global Powers !!

Who is asking you to pay hundreds of thousands as tv and radio license?

The government! Go meet them, it's not capitalism it's purely corrupt government actions.

You create another thread to lament on how you hate capitalism and how it'll lead to the end and/or destruction of the world. But this thread here has little to do with capitalism.

Maybe the day your government would ask you to pay for coming out from your house in the morning, you'll blame capitalism for that as well.

Alright. Maybe you don't understand much economics...

I'm an Accountant by profession and I'm talking about what's fuelling Government action not the Action itself....

I thought I was on Intellectual debate on negative impact of capitalism and it's implication on Taxes and the people ... grin ... Nairaland ooo cheesy

Anyway, .. Enjoy your day ... and Ohhhh, Obinna ... How market bro cheesy

This has been going on in Abuja for like 8yrs. The only difference now is it is affecting small businesses. Banks were mostly targeted prior to now and I can tell you as at 2013, my branch was billed N1.2mil before it was brought down to N400k.

Not everything started with Buhari's regime.

Lord have mercy this heartless extortion

You're the most unintelligent person I've had to interact with, the past week.

Whatever is your professional does not matter in this discussion.

A simple question, how does the government demanding for money(via taxation) from citizens translate to capitalism being bad?

Are such a dunce to think like that or you just don't know how to reason?

Another question, if capitalism is abolish and your darling socialism replaces it, would the government stop demanding for money from citizens?

You see you should know where to point blames at, it's surprising that a supposed graduate of accounting could think that excessive government taxation is caused by capitalism.
Wonders shall never end on this same nairaland.

Could you please explain how it all works because the report is very confusing and unclear.

Who is to pay businesses, individuals or both.
Also, is it compulsory? That is, what if you don't have nor listen to either radios and TVs are you also mandated to pay for a service you don't use?

How does it work really? Because the whole thing defeats logic, it's totally unreasonable in my opinion even for big businesses to pay.

It is not about using TV/ Radio per se. More about using any equipment that transmits waves. They targeted big businesses because they know we use internet and have no choice than to pay up or risk being sealed up or fined.

The first time we heard about it, I was on the team that liased with the AMAC people. We found out it had been one of the bye laws that wasnt put into use. The goverment of Bala Mohammed as FCT minister saw it as a means of generating income and a private firm was appointed to effect it. Their office used to be in UTC area 10, don't know if they are still there.
