Tarman is up to no good when he promised peasants GST will not be raised to punish the poor.
Peasants know politicans make promises before procedural elections just to break them after the elections. As Arse Loong promises in no certain terms that if he needs to raise money to punish poor peasants, he has no qualms to raise GST.
Tarman, in a shaky defence says GST will be raised after 60 full moons because it was inevitable. Tarman says it will be irresponsible not to raise taxes, suggesting Arse Loong was responsible when he raised taxes to punish poor peasants.
Tarman could raise taxes because he needs to balance the budget after Old Autocrat and Ho Jinx blew up the pension funds after several silly overseas investments. Both old autocrat and Ho Jinx lost enough money to build another 10 IRs on the island. In addition, peasants who are used to kowtowing autocrats are unable to make the cut to turn Peasantpore into a knowledge based economy. The island republic had to import cheap foreign peasants to make MNCs happy and retain them. Hence despite Tarman's lies, he is likely to introduce more indirect taxes if GST is not raised in the future.
