The P363.32-billion increase in government debts is just one of
two very dangerous signs that must be looked into when it comes to the people’s
money.
Keep in mind, people, that collection of HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of
all kinds of taxes and fees have NEVER BEEN SUSPENDED since the Aquino
Administration took over.
Income tax, real estate tax, road users’ tax and all the fees one
has to pay in the processing of transactions or requests in government offices.
Add to these the BILLIONS in earnings of the Philippine Charity
Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), Pagcor and other government-owned or controlled
companies.
Plus the income from investments of government agencies like the
Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) and the Social Security System
(SSS),
I may be forgetting others but the bottom line is billions and
billions of pesos are earned by government yearly. And we practically have NO
IDEA WHERE the bulk of it is going.
It’s only Pnoy (or, in fairness to him, does he) and a select
group of officials from the Department of Budget and Management and Cabinet
secretaries know.
As
I’’ve written several times before, have you seen or heard of any major
government infrastructure project, completed or under construction, funded by Pnoy’s government since he took
over as President?
Or
any massive purchase of modern equipment or tools for farmers and fishermen to
help increase their catch or harvest, or credit programs worth hundreds of
millions of pesos which had been disbursed to a majority of them?
Or
any other similar pro-poor or pro-people project funded by our taxes? I
haven’t. But believe, I’ll be happy to stand corrected.
The
only consistent undertaking I hear about from Pnoy’s government is the
Department of Social Welfare and Development’s (DSWD) conditional cash transfer
program.
But
of the supposed tens or hundreds of thousands of people benefited so far by the
CCT, we have yet to see even a few thousands of them and the purported
improvement brought about by the program to the quality of their life.
I
don’t recall any detailed, public breakdown of the hundreds of millions already
(or is it billions already) spent on the CCT, as well as names and addresses of
the supposed beneficiaries.
But
this early, Budget Sec. Butch Abad has bared plans to INCREASE BY P40 BILLION
the budget for the CCT next year. That’s right, boys and girls, P40 billion,
not million.
On
top of all these, you’ve probably heard of or read by now that Pnoy will be
asking for a P2 TRILLION, or P2,000 billion, national next year.
No
projects or accomplishments, a P363-32 billion increase in government with no
solid proof or clear indication where it went, and Pnoy still wants MORE
MONEY, MORE OF OUR TAXES, next year.
GISING,
MGA KABABAYAN! TAYO ANG MADURURSA, ANG LALONG MAGHIHIRAP, HINDI SILA!

Ikinahihiya ko itong si Penoy. Sa labas at loob ng bansa, walang
ginawa kundi manira ng kapuwa.

Pnoy's theme for Independence Day is "Pananagutan ng bayan para
sa tuwid na daan" ....baka pananagutan ng gobyerno sa bayan para sa tuwid
na daan

In the end,
magiging, “Ang pananagutan ni Pnoy sa ginawang KAPALPAKAN SA BAYAN!"

Thank you, Mr. Boyet. Your blogs are eye-openers.

I don't listen to his speeches. I switch
channels every time I see him on TV. I find it so stressful watching and
listening to a crackpot.

Yes, super hambog. Hindi maka move on kay Corona hanggang ngayon. Nawala
na’t lahat si CJ Corona, walang tigil na pagbatikos pa rin ang ginagawa niya.
ENCHONG JUANATAS
Gawa lang ni
Carandang ang speech niya! Kaya naghahallucinate na me democracy daw sa ating
bayan. Ipinapahiya siya ng sarili niyang
mga tauhan sa mga speech na ginagawa para sa kanya.

Iyan ang malaking problem, kaya lumalabo ang
pag-unlad ng Pinas. Kahit sinong presidente ang maupo ay napakasuwerte dahil sa
sipag ng mga OFW around the world, OFW remittances are very advantageous sa gov’t
natin. Maraming OFW ang gusto ng mag-retire sa Pinas kaya lang hindi
makadesisyon dahil nababahala sa economy, safety, etc – all because of the
present political situation.

This president won’t stop until he sees Corona dead.
WHERE DID THE P363.32-B NEW LOANS GO?

Manny was surprised, Even the audience was
surprised. Bradleys punches were not even hurting Manny. I guess at the end of
the day, let the people be the judge. Manny gave a very good fight. 30
