You are really scratching around with that comment to find a 'reason' to belittle those double-bin tax protestors , are'nt you ?
"Ringsend scroungers unite!!!! "
Rates were abolished in 1976 as 'unconstitutional' and , as a result , VAT was increased by two-and-a-half per cent to compensate local authorities . Everyone has been paying that extra two-and-a-half per cent since 1976 - if the local Councils have not being receiving that money , then it is the politicians that owe it , not us (a case for the Mahon Tribunal , perhaps ?) .
Those of us that are refusing to pay this charge are doing so because we do not believe that we should have to pay twice for the one service . If you decide to do so (ie pay twice) then that is your business , but please do not expect that we should all be as compliant as you are . Some of us have a bottom line .
