Property Tax in Trinidad & Tobago

[RedVEVO]

Their ethnicity matters? The tax is ill conceived in its present form, no amount of Indians will change that, since these employees are merely doing a job.

Then make your concerns known on a public platform. Tell us exactly how the tax is inequitable or discriminatory.

People bedroom getting tax as a part of their house, yet nobody claiming is a sleeping or bulling tax. The religious persecution angle is completely garbage.

The legislation is publicly available for all to see, point to a section ans say where it ill conceived. Make no sense for men to be playing soggy crix on the internet over who hate the tax the most, but eh saying nothing to make their voice heard.

2NR not public? My concerns with this tax are already well known in this very thread.
Which religious group in T&T besides Hinduism has external prayer rooms? Can you not open your mind to see how it could be viewed as a tax targeting them? Of course Impsy doing nothing to allay this fear, misguided or not.

Open the mind of Protein Head ?

You jest

Muslims have prayer rooms also but inside house not outside .

Chinese Buddhist have a prayer room.

Usually next to the Koi Pond.

Because Imbert is a blasted idiot. External Prayer rooms if taxed would be highly dependent on the construction of it. Fully Enlclosed and covered? 15-25% of the rate of the regular house per square foot.

Everything i said here to disprove the sheit Imbert said has been right so far even before he come out to the news with it. From when I called out the taxing dog kennel and latrine to section 23 for poverty relief. Yet alyuh eh hearing what i saying.

If you cant dispute it then that would make you even dumber

[zoom rader]

A few pundits began speaking out against the prayer room tax...let's see if this would gain some momentum

Pray room tax is like when the south African goverment imposed a tax on all Indian babies born in South Africa to which Ghandi was brought in to fight.

Here we have a racist PNM tax on injuns

[88sins]

so you know that they are majority indians then?

& the majority of them are also form central & south. So what's your point?

So a prayer room should be open and uncovered? The point is, a prayer room should not be taxed at all, once it is verified as such since no one else will be affected by this.

^^That last video though!!

No Trini ent going out and protest against de Pee On Dem fuh no tax or price increase unless dey ban Carnival!!!!!!!

[88sins]

Trini's to coward to protest.
But the reality of the effects of starvation would make them grow some ballz & kick certain politicians in dey teeth.

[crazybalhead]

I read what imbert wrote, I think it was a staged PNM Public relation excersize .

But all in all its really an injun tax.

We know that no one in beetham and laventille will get taxed and in the other PNM hot spots areas.

This tax will lead to ppl not improving their homes or doing mods to it.

These valuations will be done by PNM ppl and mostly likely they will have an unspoken mandate to tax injuns higher

you going to be so surprised when you actually see who the assessors are
and the valuers
and the deputy COV
and the COV himself

Not really.

so you know that they are majority indians then?

Sigh...is Ric you talking about sir?

Thats is not true as during the non PNM goverments rule everyday PNM ppl would be marching up and down protessing cuase as the good sheep they are PNM tell them so.

if a peeonem group is the ruling gov't of the day & the ppl starving you really feel ppl go listen to impsbutt & growley when dey say doh worry doh riot?
pnm/unc/cop party cards are not ingredients for soup or roti zr, & loyalty to politicians in the hopes they will help you is something that easily disappears as soon as ppl realize they will NEVER help anyone but themselves, & that you, the average citizen & your children, are left to die of starvation with nary a thought from them, whilst they laugh & gro fat from your suffering.
A hungry man that have to watch his children starve because of a few a--holes corruption & failures is a different kinda animal

Trini is bebeh. Myself included.

Yes
Are you now going to tell me that a licensed land and valuation surveyor is an uneducated fool?
Or is he a pnm hire from the slums of the beetham?

I giving you the exact rate for an enclosed and covered structure apart from the house. I eh telling you how to build it.

Voiding any area of a private residence is much more headache than it is worth. Anybody could claim anything is a prayer room. No assessor will go inside a house or closed structure, so your entire house could be a prayer room at that point.

And how would one even prove that they are of a religion which requires a prayer room?
Should a note from the pundit be sought?

The best way to deal with this is to separate church from state entirely and treat everyone as equal before this law.

Have you ever seen, or been in a Hindu prayer room? I think if you're genuinely claiming a prayer room as such, then you as the homeowner would show the valuator that it is indeed a prayer room with all the items that a prayer room normally has, like murtis etc.
Your "entire house as a prayer room" argument is laughable btw. Anyone seeking an exemption from any tax has to show why they qualify for such, be it annuity statements, tourism investment. It is not dependent on emotion, or because you say/feel so.

Yes I have been, I have Hindu family.

The underlying question is why should it be exempt. Food and education are also fundamental human rights, but kitchens and studies (for the homes that do have studies) are still taxed.

Where is the line? Serious question, is not as if i just being obtuse for no reason.

Being obtuse whether deliberate or not, is still being obtuse.
Kitchens and studies are part of the continuous structure of a house, and are not usually external to that house. A prayer room, is an outbuilding to a house, much like a storage shed, or greenhouse.

Protein Head have no hindu family . Absolutely NONE

You cannot be hindu and say that a prayer room is just another building .

And food and education is NOT fundamental human rights (FHR) .

FHR are equality, right to life , security etc.

the lil puja rooms are not a 'rentable' part of the house, or property. it cannot be used to 'generate an income' , it cannot be used as a way to 'store wealth'
the reason to have it, is more or less the same reason why public religious establishments are tax exempt.

is like, if u have a stoosh bathroom, or a simple one, u can adjust ur asking price to suit the value added. but nobody goin and say, well that is a realll nice puja room, so that means u gonna charge a high price for the property. u not going to buy the property cause it has a puja room to die for.

and, instead of installing a Jacuzzi, u decided to put a puja room...


just low.

the only reprieve is that the valuators look at the puja rooms, and say it not valid to be assessed as a separate structure.
