Thai government plans 7% VAT on imported goods from May
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You can still buy them though, for a few baht more. -
So you don't understand income tax at all. Most countries do the same: a) Buy the vote of the masses, hence [near] 0 tax up to half a million a year, that where many Farang retirees are BTW, b) Be subservient to the power of money, by implement all sorts of tax evasion schemes for the rich, c) Hit the middle classes as hard as you can, as they are not too many voters and neither do they have the power of big money. Doubt there are many rich amongst the LTR holders, the are mostly the middle class. I's be paying close to one quarter of my income if I had to pay here. I have always hated the progressive income tax systems, because it hurt me when I was submitted to it, but also just for what it is: an incentive for mediocrity and laziness. Ronald Reagan is one of the few rulers who could see this and do something about it. Even though he never managed to get a true flat IT implemented.

PM Blasted For Saying Cannabis Policy Yielded Bad Results
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Could someone explain to me what the effect of cannabis is? I know that alcohol makes be happily uninhibited, and then plain sick, while Tylenol removes most of my old age aches. No idea about cannabis. 45 years ago, in the North, I had three puffs of an opium pipe with zero effect, but I am not a smoker. That was my drug addict career so far. -
Just tell her you have a mia noï.

Gays for Trump are like cows for hamburgers
Ben Zioner replied to Jingthing's topic in Gay People in Thailand
So you reckon he won't be his own successor, because he was Mussolini in January 2021, wasn't he? -

Didn't say they were cheap. I just confirm they are tops. Also OP seems to be the sort of guy who would have a proper health cover. I see them once a year, follow up visits are more like THB 1500 , but I pay only 10% of those bills. Remember, Thailand is now a country for people with proper health cover.

Go to Rutnin. Possibly better than most eye care facilities in the West.

Picture of Israeli soldier holding Thai flag causes a stir
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Hilarious, first it isn't foreign policy, it is plainly defense. Denying Israel it's right to defend itself reeks of antisemitism indeed. -
Nope. Do you send them a letter every time you have sex, to tell them with whom, in what position and with what kind of protection. Get a life..
