Taxing Rich Farmers
Farm income is exempted from any tax. But i have come across farmers who own mercedes cars an BMWs!!!
I am not asking to tax farmer who cannot earn their wages and keep up their familes but those who make millions should not be given these benefits.
As a salaried person i feel as if i am being taxed an the benefits are given to those who are alredy rich.
Consider farming as a business and tax those farmers who make big profit. Attaching profits to per acre of land will not work as some own hundreds of acre of land but can slip away from tax becuase of this clause.
Yours Sincerely,
