Sir: But would you still tax the 130 million defective condoms imported by corrupt Ministry of Health personnel? Would condoms be tax-deductible for government registered harlots? Would flavoured condoms attract a higher rate of tax? Would gay prostitutes be treated fairly? Would moonlighting MPs be exempt from income tax? What if they were to use the back seats of their 4X4s instead of their official residence; would the taxpayer fund the running costs?
Ghana should be proud of its democracy, proud of the thoughtful, wise and compassionate members of parliament voted into office by a scrupulously fair and honest electoral system.

...This is proper Create, Loot and Share.
Your tax money. My tax money. And when they finish sharing they ask you for more tax. The roads are not fixed, the water doesn't flow. The power goes on and off. While the looting brigade continues to share the booty. And the POOR supporters keep cheering them up. While they are fed each day with Promises, Upon Promises, upon Promises. Oh my Brothers and Sisters, When will you become Wise and Vote these Thieves out of Power. Cant you see this Country Dying? Even Nunoo Mensah has Seen the country dying. God help Ghana !!!

SEVENFOLD SUPERPOWER
CHARACTERISTICS TO ANCIENT POWERS:

BABEL: Nimrod the most powerful man until the Lord dispersed human languages. Bringing like terms into groups. Skycrapper building was introduced to the world. Wickedness was abound.

EGYPT: Kingship was the ruling order, until governorship was instituted to make Joseph the first governor on earth.Slavery took place and roaming the earth for mineral resources, using military to threaten neighbours. What they did not do was imposing their religion or philosophies on others. Physical Pyramid in building form.

BABYLON: Kingship,Daniel the governor,imposition of their religion or philosophies, hanging garden or beautiful edifics like modern buildings and skyscrappers.Pyramidal human institutional structures. Wars to exploit others,slavery and earthly cleansing.

GREEK: All the above was institutionized, including military triumph over other powers.

PERSIA: All of the above including infedility in all forms. Social vices to the epitome and sciences.

ROME: All the above including manifestations of A.D. The killing of the Lord God's SALVATION PLAN to his coming Kingdom.

UNITED KINGDOM: All of the above, as well as acting as aliens to exploit mineral resources using planes, ships and other communicating mediums on weaker nations. Distorting of the gospel of SALVATION to plant themselves as the most important human beings God have created(racism). They also made industrialisation opened to the world.

THE PENDING: Seven to ten folds of the pyramids. Democracy/capitalism, Las Vegas syndromes, Pentagon influence and twisting of scriptures.

First, the MP's wife will be employed as the lead prostitute in a Private/Government partnership brothel and tax deducted from her payslip before others are invited for jobs for more taxes.

Men are wonderful hypocrites when it comes to prostitution! Who are the clients? Check their diverse professions? Female commercial sex workers have rights, human rights. Many are mothers, seeking to survive with their children! Some are students looking for school fees1 Don't box all of them together and condemn them! The MP's suggestion has been tried elsewhere.

The prostitutes will receive medical and protective care - against HIV/AIDS and other diseases.It will be a win-win for all. Prostitution(the oldest profession)ain't going anywhere - legal or not. It's time to legalize it

The Bible is against prostitution so on that basis I agree that it can't be legalised. On the contrary, how many girls will sleep with people with down's syndrome, autism and even mad men?? Do you think people with these genetic diseases and mental retardation have no sexual feelings? I am not very sure about the sex status of prisoners in Ghana but I hear there are many homosexuals.Doesn't it make more sense to sleep with a prostitute than children or same sex??? Lets make a careful cosideration.

I keep asking myself the same old question: Why is Ghana so blessed with so many foolish politicians?
Another MP's contribution to Ghana's myriad problems is to suggest we legalise prostitution so that it may be taxed. He does not ask pertinent questions eg why so many of our young women engage in prostitution, why so many are unemployed, homeless , unskilled and are forced to sell their bodies in order to survive.
Let us have a grown up debate about poverty and unemployed and let us hear the MPs contribution to the debate.

If you describe something as a "vice" then why do legalize it? Ghanaian! where lies our values? Laws, legislation and regulations of every country/community are based on their value systems and not to talk Christianity. Christianity and all other major religions in Ghana abhor it and it must be as such.

This is the kind of moronic thinking which is killing the United States of America!

This 'MP' would fit right in with the Democrat party in the U.S.

Murder is poplar! - why not just tax it rather than prosecute it? Stealing is popular - and lots of Ghanians make a living doing it! - why not just tax it rather than prosecute it!

If prostitution was taxed - it would have to be legailized - and then the fraud to avoid paying the tax would create an entirely new bureacracy - which would, ALSO, be corrupted by fraud and theft!

A bookish young man goes into a whorehouse to seek entertainment.
He goes up to the madam and says, "Madam, I'd like a woman for the
evening."
The Madam says, "Sir, I'm afraid all the girls are taken tonight,
but if you'd care to, I'm available."
So the guy and the madam go into a bedroom and get undressed. As
he takes off his clothes, she looks him over and she notices that,
flaccid, he's only two inches long.
But then the guy says, "Rise, Caesar!" And his manhood rises to
a full 12 inches. So they have a great time, and after about five
hours the madam is very impressed.
"Sir," she says, "this has been one of the most pleasurable
evenings of my life. I was wondering if you'd mind if I called the
girls in so they could have a look at you. You're really something
special, you know."
But the guy says, "No, madam, no. I have come to bury Caesar, not
to praise him."

Asantes must start removing all these alarming tags & labels from the image of mother Ghana: COCAINE DEALERS, WHORES & PIMPS.
Because of this two at least, everywhere you travel to, they think there all Ghanaians are Asantes.
Don't you MPs (both majority & minority) in the parliament have any better visional policy ideas to contribute to the development of Ghana?
Another MP was pleading for nurses, claiming otherwise these nurses would turn into prostitution.
WHAT THE HELL WITH THESE 'RED-LIGHT' PIMP MPs? They're all 'DO-LITTLE' ZERO-ZERO MPs!!!

Mr MP, you describe something as VICE and yet you are advocating that this so-called vice should be legalised. Mmmmmmm!!!!! Ghana MP. Are you then suggesting that because some people are making a living through armed robbery, dealing in narcotic drugs for example, Ghana MPs should LEGALIZE them so that those practising these vices can be taxed and MPs can be paid their fat 7,000 Ghana cedis per month from such taxes? Mr MP, please think about this!

Thank you.

Regulate prostitution and tax it – MP
