As the business community in Uganda protests against prohibitive taxes, we continue to stand in solidarity with them.
What makes these taxes especially wrong and immoral, is that most of the money collected goes to the luxurious and extravagant lifestyle of Gen. Museveni, his family and cronies, and then another big portion is lost through unabated corruption.
We all have a duty to support and stand in solidarity with the protesting traders because it is not just their issue but our issue. High taxes lead to high commodity prices which in turn affects every citizen!
