Answer 3

Right now, the gov't has a $2.2 Billion dollar gas subsidy, but they are reviewing it, and might change it.

"We currently have a $2.2 billion subsidy and that subsidy is divided between premium gasoline, super gasoline, diesel and kerosene. When you break that down you would find that the subsidy for each of those have (sic) not changed...not withstanding a 64 per cent increase in the cost of the product," said Enill."

LOL ok TS

Well the govt currently have a $2.2 Billion dollar gas subsidy. The energy minister currently reviewing this summary, because there are some people who can not afford to pay for gas if the price increaces. The energy minister said that the problem with the current subsidy is that there are people who can afford the current gasoline prices, but then there are people who cant afford it, so it needs to be reviewed so that those who are unable to afford gas has the same benifits as the people who can. Prices are going up, so the govt is trying to make sure people can afford gasoline, but at the same time, they are trying to make sure that the economy dosent weaken.

Answer 5

Enill want to cut out the sub real bad, but we have to pump money into CEPEP and URP, yuh ever see more dotishness.

Cut out de MAWF (make ah wuk foundation) and increase production. If the sub gone we have to ride bike to go to work.

Why not try to encourage the use of alternative fuel cars, why are we still buying buses that use diesel fuel why not natural gas

If the sub is cut what will be the cost for a rapid rail ticket or a ferry ticket ? Oh you will sub those too and run a $4 B sub instead.
