    By the way, I saw an orange Bentley Bentayga yesterday. How much do people pay for those things? Is it twice the price of its twin (Audi Q7)?
    Most probably. Maybe thrice pa.

    Ouch.

    Now this will "hurt" everyone.

    No escpaing the Domino Effect.

    Sabi nga ng gas pump boy na nakausap ko about this TRAIN, "Nagsisisi ako binoto ko si Duterte".

    At least marunong yung gas pump boy na mag-konek-the-dots.

    Some people, on the other hand, still don't get it.

    kulang sa imagination ang gobyerno

    and the public

    it's only after things happen that people realize the full effect

    it will be days or weeks after the excise tax on fuel when the public will feel the pain

    and the govt will go all out managing the backlash

    Reversible ba mga batas tulad neto?

    Or maybe the SC will issue a TRO once na feel na nila.

    i'm sure there will be calls for TRO or something

    me

    May 10, 2017 Digong thread

    I cited venezuela as an example of populism gone wrong

    Populist leaders will blame businesses when there are food shortages (hoarding daw)

    But it's the government's fault in the first place

    In response to high inflation the govt imposes price controls

    So businesses stop importing coz they'll be losing money

    Which results in shortages

    The govt then goes after businessmen to appease the masses

    But that doesn't solve the shortage problem

    I told them du30 is a populist

    His populist policies (end contractualization, tax exemptions for low income earners, raising taxes elswhere, etc) could cause high inflation

    So in reaction, the govt will act like any populist govt -- impose price controls

    Which will cause shortages and even higher inflation (and of course widespread anger among the masses)

    The govt will then go after businessmen to appease the masses

    I advised my co workers to not be blinded by the increased take home pay (income tax adjustment) and be extra prudent with expenses until we all see the full effect of the TRAIN in the coming quarters.

    I think he's probably referring to what will occur after visiting the showroom, such as having to explain to his better half on why there's a PGA Cars delivery at their gate.

    the DTI with their "suggested retail price" is price control in disguise

    they'll be even stricter this time breathing down the necks of retailers
