The government's IMU property tax is putting at risk agricultural production in the rich Chianti countryside of Tuscany, two local mayors complained Tuesday.
"The IMU agricultural (tax) strikes at the soul of Chianti," say Giacomo Trentanovi and David Baroncelli, representing Barberino Val d'Elsa and Tavarnelle Val di Pesa.
They accused the national government of "harassing" property owners with the tax that they say could drive many out of business when it should instead being "giving a hand" during the ongoing economic crisis.
Tranzi bastards---is there nothing decent (Chianti is better than decent wine, IMO) they won't try to destroy? |
