They also don't pay zilch in taxes, why should we the 20% bear the burden for the 80%

The Kenyan Cycle:
Raise taxes -> Cost of Living Increases -> Teachers Strike-> Lecturers Strike/Nurses etc -> Ksh Weakens -> Mugundas go Up....

On to the next phase: Strikes season will be back soon, everyone needs a payrise.

Please explain the tax part. I see tax deduction on my grandma's tea crop monthly payment slip.

They also commute (pay fare to the veh owner who paid taxes acquiring the vehicle and fueling) and use household goods which are thoroughly taxed.

The only tax you must pay is income tax, the other indirect taxes you can choose to pay or avoid. I mean PAYE on their incomes which in some cases are quite substantial.

PAYE is for employment income only.

in general rural kenya has extreme poverty, Even if kra camped in every village looking for that income to tax they would end up spending more for whatever they would get.

I see employed guys complaining about that paye tax, I wish thy could try moving to those rural areas and try farm ndio wajue employment even with that paye deducted is still way better.

You mean to say you have never done your tax returns?
