At around 1,000 B.C. as recorded in the Bible 1 Samuel 8:10-22 and other history books, Samuel warned the Israelites who wanted to have a King that if they have one, he will overtax them by taking away tenth of their grain, vineyards and flocks to pay his officers and servants a warning people never heeded to and regretted it under King Saul and other Kings in Israel.
Same, if BBI pass it will overtax Kenyans probably twice or thrice of current taxations. That's a fact the BBI brigadiers will never openly tell Kenyans as they are blindfolded by goodies they have pocketed or promised in the BBI.
But doing some substantiated analysis, we get the fact that BBI will bring an office of Prime Minister, two Deputy Prime Ministers, Office of the Opposition Leader, increase no of Members of Parliament from current 365 to 650, increase County Funding from 15% to 35% as well as introduce 5% of tatal County Revenue Collection as Ward Development Fund.
All these will require funding from the Government's budget a luggage to be added to Kenyans who are already paying high taxes with PAYE at 15%, 25% and 30% while VAT is at 15% which has resulted to high cost of living and with BBI, PAYE might rise to 30%, 50% or even 60 meaning about half of the salary every Kenyan is earning will be deducted as tax and VAT might rise to 30% meaning prices of all commodities will double which means double high cost of living.
That will not be enough to implement BBI, so current public debt which is over 7 trillion will double or triple to over 14 trillion or even 21 trillion and Kenyan economy will be at crisis.
This is the time for patriotic liberal minded members of Parliament to introduce bills in Parliament to increase County Funding from 15% to even more than 35%, introduce Ward Development Fund, establish a youth commission, establish an ex official opposition leader so as to do away with other changes being brought about by Building Burdens Initiative.
This is the time for IEBC to review the Constituencies boundaries and ensure all the 290 Constituencies in Kenya which are Constitutionally, democratically and politically placed there remain and ensure none will be scrapped off or have its name edited even a single letter.
This is the time for patriotic liberal minded Kenyans to say No to Building Burdens Initiative. It's time to stand to be counted in history as those who stood on the right side of history when old retiring health problematic leaders were dragging Kenya to their graves!
It is the time for Judiciary to stand with the rule of law as the system will use all means possible to cook numbers to pass this BBI. Judiciary should stand on the right side of history and expose all irregularities and illegalities IEBC and Deep State or System will use to force this bitter indigestible BBI Pill in the stomach of shut Wanjiku's mouth.
It's the time for Liberal Minded Kenyans to safeguard Kenya Constitution 2010 from mutilation and ensure it's implementation.
