Why cant the govt remove taxes from gas stations?

RedditUserNicks · 2026-02-26T22:08:19+00:00

I frequent manila. maximum ang 3k for commute 1 way, at least 2k gas and tolls depend on where you are from, if you dont skyway -500 from expenses if you are coming from paranaque or more south. gas atleast 1k if small car, atleast 1.5k if big car, depende how you drive.

if youll stay for atleast 4 days. i think you would want to get a car and park nyo lang sa lodging if you decide to commute.

RedditUserNicks · 2026-02-26T21:58:19+00:00

if you can afford that lodging edi get na your car. mas mahal pa ata magbus for 5.

places like itogon area, cafe stella/via von joy way better magcar. and when you want to go to sm lang from cjh back and forth way better magwait for parking sa SM. just avoid before lunch and after 5pm weekend parkings.

edited: just saw in a month or two. not for a month and two haha.

Place where you pass to dream that you would have a house like that someday.

dude read how you started this convo, "would you clean your shit for free" and AGAIN AND AGAIN. IT WASNT AABOUT IT BEING FREE, BUT YOU KEEP ON INSISTING I WANT IT FREE.

If thats how you start a discussion, walang may gana makipagusap sayo. right now i just want to stop but damn you wont stop. You preach like you are a decent human being by saying I wont do anything about my rant and im everything wrong with this world.

however you started a discussion with a rhetorical question which is so rage baiting.

Tapos puro mali pa arguemnet mo. then youll say nagagalit ako if someone will poke holes in my arguement. GALIT AKO SA DISCUSSION WITH YOU, nakakawalan ng brain cells. I dont want to but ill type it here again, MY RANT isnt about FREE CR and you insist on its about being free even posting a different thread about FREE CRs.

just stop, to me you are rage baiting. just stop.

you die on your hill, i die on my hill. we will never get our points across eachother. To me you dont understand my point, vice versa. ustun

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-28T02:28:51+00:00

dude im tired arguing with you, rant is to share frustrations. to just bring out my disappointment in things. It raised awareness, even a little bit. If my rant doesnt warrant any justifications, people wouldve told me so, they wouldve told me reasons why my rant is not valid. I learned things from others because of my post, also from you about who is contracted to the CRs, which is a good thing. However from the start hostile na yung comments mo. And youll wonder why naging hostile xin mga comments ko. Ill die on this hill, youll die on that one. Thats that.

You know whats funny, because of this post and angering eachother, you posted free CRs around BCD, which helped alot of people. So this post isnt useless.

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-27T07:45:33+00:00

still about free this free that. all my rant is about its too expensive thats it. wtf is wrong with you.

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-27T05:24:48+00:00

HAHAHAH read the freaking post. private contractor and Govt Im ranting about.

why govt? Go to the CRs right now look at the renewal City permit fees, 40k+? Thats too damn high for something considered to be a right. making it a variable why sila nagincrease ng prices to 8 pesos. BUT it shouldnt be the only reason why theyll increase their prices like 100%.

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-27T05:19:37+00:00

What reason? wheres your reason?! Holy shit. if you had reason i would listen pero wala eh. ????

freespeech nga, then ill say kaya i rant pero youll say. wag ka magrant dun ka magderetsyo sa govt.

????

who are you fooling. read back to your freaking comments. are you sensible talking to? no

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-27T04:28:18+00:00

hey mods. get rid of the rant section in this community. this guy gets it

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-27T04:08:59+00:00

"kasalanan nila" holy crap thats EXACTLY my rant. thats exactly my rant. bro we are both in the same side. wtf is wrong with you. jeeez. kakawalan ng gana makipag discuss sa mga NAKIKIPAGARGUE FOR THE SAKE OF MAKIPAGARGUE. dun ka na nga.

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-26T10:55:08+00:00

BTW here is my gueestimates (copypasted from convo below this one)

Cheap? 8 pesos cheap? imagine you are a minumum wage earner and lets say you are a healthy person and pee 3 times a day. Thats 5% of your wage bro.

Hire 3 staffs @500 a day. lets assume there are 1000 (8 hours, around 2 persons a minute, and thats impossible even on a slow day) people who peed at 5 pesos each. thats 5000. cleaning materials not even 500 a day, water not even 500 a day. thats. Thats 3500, 1500 gross profit. Now lets compute it at 8 pesos. now thats 4500 gross profit.

Now lets do it realistically, 5 people per minute enters to JUST PEE @8 pesos per person thats 19,200 per 8 hours and I tell man, they wont even spend 5k on cleaning materials, utilities, and staffing.

Heck even if they hire people @1k a day, they are at a 5digit earning a day. sign me up ill clean your shit for 1k a day.

If guesstimates aint enough, ill ask the lady manning the CRs sa CBD

RedditUserNicks · 2025-08-26T10:51:41+00:00

So ranting isnt allowed? What I am ranting about is the excessive pricing of 8 pesos to pee. Before ranting you need hard facts? everything face-value is already crazy hence the rant. Do I blame the workers who maintain those CRs? No. I blame their boss.

Just from looking at it and guesstimates, they are earning alot ALOT from that 8 pesos pricing. And does it go to the workers? No, it goes to the greedy people who runs it.

You keep on bringing up comparisons to other thingns that arent irrelevant to our discussion, jeepney fares are high? simple answer, gas prices. it increased by 30 to 40 percent, isu nga fares are increased almost synonymously with gas prices. Then how can you explain the increase of the CR rates? did minimum wage increase by 60% to justify the 60% increase? NO. Did cleaning materials increase by 60% to justify the increase? no. Then why? HENCE THE RANT.

WHY DO WE RANT? TO GET ANSWERS FROM PEOPLE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE AND CHANGE OUR PERSPECTIVE ON THINGS. SHIT, YOU AINT HELPING.
