There is a proposed ordinance to tax pet owners depending on the number of their pets. That is to implement a stricter control of pets because smuggling of exotic pets are getting to be prevalent and the spread of rabies is also an issue due to the stray dogs in every corner. Pet owners cannot do anything although we all think that it is unfair and uncalled for. Our solution to rabies is to impound stray dogs and other animals. With the smuggling of exotic animals, it is the job of another government agency.
Sometimes laws are created that do not fit those affected. Our idea now is for the local government to earn money thru that tax on pets. And what would they do with the collected taxes? It's not for me to argue, I just want to express my opposition to that motion.
