Re: No new university in Hyderabad
I think you should read my post again and try to understand, as you are making comments without reading or understanding my post. No doubt that everyone in country benefits from taxes given by taxpayers and I never wrote that only tax-payers should benefit from taxes and those unfortunate who could not pay taxes should not benefit. But then, rhetoric what you are doing, without understanding economics and living away from facts does not help country or people living in the country, rather it harms everyone.
What I wrote is that, when people pay taxes they expect substantial part of those taxes to be used around them. But that does not mean, a part of that tax is not used to uplift areas incapable of contributing tax. Anyhow, if government deprives an area that gives tax (or create revenue) to provide areas that gives little or no tax than fallout is much horrible for the country.
It is just like, if a person who earns Rs 10 lac a month then one can expect that the person would spend a lac or two lac on relatives, friends, and poor around him, but one cannot expect that the person brings his living standard to poverty, contributing most to poor in society, so that every poor could get uplift and start living at par with this rich and resourceful person.
Same is with tax. If people living in area that contributes huge amount of money as tax, then you cannot expect them to live without amenities reflecting their taxes just because government wants to spend most of their taxes not on them but to uplift areas that has little or no facilities so to bring facilities across the country at par. If that would happen, then the person would stop paying tax and then there would be nothing left for government to even spend a little on uplifting poor areas.
Why don’t you become adviser to corrupt thug Nawaz and Shahbaz, as these thug brothers need your advice badly, because according to your essentially development economics (in case of Punjab), PMLN corrupt government should not spend anything on Lahore and let Lahore be starved of all amenities, leave Lahore with no paved or decent roads (tuti-phuti roads would make Lahirees healthy), no good transport (walking is good for health), no good colleges and hospitals (jahil and bemmar Lahore would increase tax), no recreational venues (what is the use for that), no clean water (rather make Lahore drink gutter water), etc … and spend all those money on Bhakkar, Lodhran, Rajanpur, toba-tek Singh, as every dollar that they would spend on Lahore would bring $2, and every dollar spent on ‘Toba-tek-Singh’ would bring $5.
Yar, why don’t you start writing a book on economics? I am sure that with your mind set, you can bring revolution in understanding economics.
Well, if Nawaz corrupt government would follow your advice, then people, especially rich and resourceful Lahories, would leave Lahore for some other better city (maybe Karachi or Hyderabad, just to live a better life, and for sure if that would happen then Sindh would benefit from wealth transfer from Punjab to Sindh).
How about depriving Islamabad of all amenities and facilities? Is it not better that government spends on ‘Dadu’ or ‘Mirpur-Batoro’ whatever they spend on Islamabad?
