It started with a quiet announcement but now, it’s got everyone talking, and fast. Just weeks ago, the Belize Tax Service Department revealed plans to become a semi-autonomous revenue authority. Fast forward to today, and social media is buzzing. The big concern is data privacy. People are asking: Will this new setup give the government too much power to track how we spend and move our money? So, we took the question straight to you, our online community. We ran a quick non-scientific Facebook poll, and over twelve hundred of you weighed in. The results are overwhelming. Ninety-two percent said “No way” to daily transaction tracking. Just five percent were open to it with strong privacy protections, and only three percent gave it a thumbs up. This discussion is only beginning; stay involved.
