BAICHUMA GATE:Kiyosaki would be impressed because the house also appreciates in value.You earn your rental income and accrue capital gains.

Njiraini impressed me with his proposal to tax idle land coz this will result in so much land being offloaded to the market hence overall reduction in cost of land hence low housing costs. Housing prices in kenya re high coz of high land prices and not high materials and developer profits.

Njiraini should strive to avoid overburdening the tax on low class/middle class who are the engines of production e.g with rental income tax. The net result is in pushing rents high hence middle /low class who are majority renters will not be able to produce more effectively.

Njiraini should look at creating enabling environment for the low/middle class then tax the created wealth. As for the high class, he can tax mercilessly through idle land tax to bridge the gap.

Such rent tax could easily create mass chaos/riots/coups when majority can not be able to provide housing, a basic human need to their families.

I meant the tax bill for the police,KDF and others.....

ARCHITECT:Njiraini's provision for an enabling environment does not include tax evasion which is illegal.Please read the income tax act cap 470.

ALi may be you should start another thread about tax evasion cause you have hijacked my thread and given it a different dimension. Pls look at the first post again. We need to discuss useful things here.
