  Why do we raise taxes? To fund the things that government does. Shouldn't we really question the scope and size of government? Shouldn't we ask the value question - is that the best use of our money. Anyway you can put up all your paper targets. The reality is Ghana is tax enough and can't take any more of this rubbish.
  
  Get rid of many of the unproductive activities Government is involved. Use our moneys to the best effect and ensure that we get value before you come back to ask for more.

  UNQUOTE.
  
  MAHAMA MUST BE KICKED OF OFFICE BEFORE THE END OF HIS FIRST TERM, OTHERWISE GHANAIANS ARE FINISHED!
  
  ALREADY, THE VAST MAJORITY OF GHANAIANS ARE TOILING TO MAKE ENDS MEET BECAUSE OF WIDESPREAD UNBRIDLED CORRUPTION IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE, THEN COMES THESE FOOLISH IMF CONDITIONALITIES.
  
  MEANWHILE, GHANA'S PARLIAMENT HAS ENOUGH MONEY TO ABSORB THE COST OF INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SEATS IN GHANA'S USELESS PARLIAMENT.
  
  WHAT A WASTE!
