It is wrong to imagine that Kenya can tax itself to prosperity

The debate on taxation is not unique to Kenya. In America, most Republicans lean toward “small government” and therefore the school of thought that taxes need to be cut.

The Democrats on the other hand lean toward big government and therefore defend the case for more taxes. Perhaps the biggest debate during Obama’s presidency was the healthcare debate. It became so divisive that some analysts say it is Obamacare that gifted Americans and the world Donald Trump.
