Must Read: HB 292- the Sweetened Beverage Tax (SSB Tax) aka the ‘Sugar Tax’ to promote more jobs

A lot of new laws coming out, pero merong isa na nakakuha ng atensiyon natin.. 

Ito ay yung HB 292- the Sweetened Beverage Tax (SSB Tax) aka the ‘sugar tax’. According to the government, they are hoping to create a simple, fair and more efficient tax system to promote investments, create jobs, and reduce poverty. 

And I don't think na makakatulong to.. Kasi unang una paano nalang yung mga kababayan natin na kapos? Isa ito sa kadalasang binibili ng nakararami tapos madadagdagan pa ang presyo..

According sa report maaring tumaas ng 10 hanggang 20 pesos ang dagdag sa presyo nito. So kung ganito talaga ang magiging dagdag talagang magiging malaki ang impact nito sa mga kababayan natin. 

The industries that are currently against the sugar tax are not anti-tax per se, rather they are for broad-based and fair tax systems. Zeroing in on sweetened beverages will definitely hurt the regular consumer. According to the bill proposed by Cong. Estellita Suansing, local 3-in-1 coffee will be taxed, but coffee made in-store, such as those from coffee shops, will not.

3-in-1 pa talaga ang napili nila.. Eh alam naman natin na madami pa ang walang trabaho dito sa pilipinas, ang mahal na nga ng mga bilihin tapos magiging ganito pa..

Meron pa bang produkto na walang tax?
