South Philippines is the dumbest shit I've seen today. Kesyo daw ang tax ng mindanao at visayas para sa kanila lang, okay, I'll humor you. Federalism is good believe me, I support it. Pero kung local tax ang pag uusapan, you will NEVER be self-sufficient.
In a federal system, taxes from all territories are pooled. Majority will be distributed to where it's needed the most. So ang ending, magiging dependent pa din kayo sa tax ng LUZON that you so hate.
In the current system, Luzon has never been dependent on Visayas, especially not Mindanao. It's the other way around. And that's a FACT! I
I don't hate the south. My mother's Ilonggo and extremely proud of her heritage. Iloilo occupies a special place in my heart kasi nagiisip ang mga tao don. Ewan ko na lang sa ibang mas south pa dun.
Just to be clear I am in no way attacking Visayans and Mindanaons as a whole. I'm just irked na may mga taong gustong paghiwalayin ang islands just because . We're better if we're united.
NCR and Luzon as a whole is the least reliant sa IRA/Taxes. Sa viz at min pa din napupunta ang IRA. Also remove Visayas from your narrative. Most of them do not share the independence qualms ng iilan sa Mindanao.
