E. Poland ceased to be a haven for the sons of Judah, when its short-sighted kings summoned the Jesuits to supervise the training of the young nobles and the clergy and crush the spirit of the Polish dissidents. These originators of disunion, to whom the frequent partition of Poland must be attributed, sought to undermine the unobtrusive power which the Jews, through their money and prudence, exercised over the nobles, and they combined with their other foes, German workmen and trades-people, members of the guilds, to restrict and oppress them. After that time there were repeated persecutions of Jews in Poland; sometimes the German guild members, sometimes the disciples of the Jesuits, raised a hue and cry against them.

  • Tithing in 10 Baby Steps
    Tithing in 10 Baby Steps A Users Guide to The Great Tithe Experiment Mike McGuire 1 This is written for you. You wanted to tithe. Now is the time. 2 The Ten Baby Steps Preface 4 1 Ask “Why?” 5 2 Ask “Why Not?” 12 3 Commit 16 4 Calculate 19 5 Count the Cost 21 6 Develop a Plan 24 7 Determine the Method 27 8 Give Now 29 9 Persevere Through Challenges 31 10 Enjoy the Benefits 33 About the Author 36 The Great Tithe Experiment 37 Notes 38 3 Preface Dear Reader, I want to help you to fulfill your desire to give. This short book takes a big step of faith and breaks it into small baby steps. I have found tithing to be one of the most fruitful spiritual disciplines resulting in a closer relationship to God and a further separation from material pursuits. Our church recently conducted an experiment to measure the effects of tithing. In total, 52 individuals participated, which included 13 households, who started tithing for the first time. You’ll receive highlights of their story in this ebook. A richer spiritual life is only 10 baby steps away. I hope you will join us. Mike McGuire 4 1 Ask “Why?” Tithing is a simple concept. It means donating 10% of your income to your local church. It’s simple, but for many Americans, not easy. One couple who took the experiment remarked, “I wrote my first check and said, ‘Oh, my gosh, that is a lot of money!’ ” The first question to ask is, “Why?” Why in the world would one give away their hard-earned income? And, why 10%? Baby Step #1 – Ask “Why?” Why should you give 10% of your income to a local church? Those are fair and appropriate questions.

  • Jesus on Tithing 17
    www.Tithing.com 1 CHAPTER INDEX PREFACE 3 INTRODUCTION 5 FIRST FRUITS 8 ABRAHAM & JACOB 11 JESUS ON TITHING 17 ETERNAL PRINCIPLE 21 THE MINIMUM STANDARD 29 THE LOCAL STOREHOUSE 33 THE BURDEN OF TITHING 38 GREATER GIVING 43 CLOSING THOUGHTS 51 www.Tithing.com 2 PREFACE The preface may be the most important portion to read in this whole book. This will define some terms and clear up some preconceived notions before we proceed to more controversial issues. If you do not believe the tithe is commanded, and are giving through freewill, Spirit-led giving, this resource is written in support of your view of giving; but if you read this only gaining support for the tithing debate, then you will have missed greater intentions that the Spirit of God has. If you support tithing (a minimum requirement of 10%), this resource is not written in total support of your view, but if you feel that this resource will make attempts to excuse selfishness, greed, and disobedience, then you will have missed the greater intentions of giving written here. The challenge for all is to gain knowledge and experience of the greater call and higher guilt led by the Holy Spirit. Whether you give beyond the tithe with limitless offerings, or you give freely, you already exercise the tool used to define "Spirit-led giving". This book will challenge you to give sacrificially. First, let’s explain and compare two types of givers. 1. Cheerful tither - They follow the examples in scripture about tithing, while cheerfully and willingly committing themselves to give a 10% minimum.

  • New Experimental Electricity Tariff Systems for Household End Use
    Panel 2 - ID 54 - p1 Wols i n k New experimental electricity tariff systems for household end Use Ma a r ten Wol s i n k De p a r tment of Environmental Science, University of Amster da m Abstract A significant tool in Demand Side Management is the structure of tariffs. Price incentives can be directed at dif- ferent parts of the efficiency-concept: efficiency in capacity planning, efficiency in total electricity consumption, efficiency in total fossil fuel use, efficiency in total energy demand. The tariff system, which is currently used in the Netherlands, does not give proper price incentives for end-user efficiency. In particular total electricity demand is rather stimulated, which is somewhat dampened by the introduction of the eco-tax. In the Netherlands field experiments with tariff systems directed at influencing household electricity demand were carried out by five utilities. In the experiments differentiated tariff-variants were introduced, replacing the old tariff-system. The experiments included voluntary price differentiation, which introduced a free-rider prob- lem in combination with the chosen price levels. Furthermore remote-monitoring, feedback, special peak-pricing etc. were implemented in the experiments. Some interesting options, in particular those influencing total demand, were not implemented by utilities. The reasons for it should be categorized as ‘strategic’ and part of the utilities’ policy. 1. Reasons for tariff experimentation In 1989 the electricity sector in the Netherlands was reorganized. Part of it was the separation by law of produc- tion companies and distribution utilities. A series of changes in purchase-rates from producers in which flexibility and capacity-cost became more important urged utilities to pay more attention to load patterns.

  • Excise Duties on Beer: Australia in International Perspective
    Excise Duties on Beer: Australia in International Perspective Prof Kym Anderson AC Wine Economics Research Centre School of Economics University of Adelaide Adelaide SA 5005 Phone +61 8 8313 4712 [email protected] February 2020 (This paper updates analysis provided in August 2019) Paper prepared for the Brewers Association of Australia, PO Box 4021, Manuka, ACT 2603 2 Excise Duties on Beer: Australia in International Perspective Almost all high-income and developing countries tax the consumption of commercially produced beer, Monaco being a rare exception (WHO 2018, 2019). Excise duties are applied to wholesale prices of beer, typically at rates that vary according to their alcohol content, so to compare across countries one needs to define a standard beer. This paper defines a standard beer as one that has 4.4% alcohol by volume, which is the average alcohol content of beer consumed in Australia. Numerous countries have lower duties on the beers of small brewers and also on lower-alcohol beers, while some also have higher duties on higher-alcohol beers. However, since the definitions of those non-standard beer categories vary greatly across countries, they are not easy to tabulate and so are not included here. To the author’s knowledge, Australia is the only country to have different rates of excise duty for draught and packaged beer, the draught rate being only 70% of that for packaged beer. Both rates are presented in the comparison below as well as their volume-weighted average. According to Euromonitor International (2018), 78% of the volume of beer consumed in Australia in 2017 was off-trade, not including cafes and restaurants.

  • What Is an 'Excise Tax' What Is an 'Indirect Tax'
    Memo Date: September 24, 2018 To: Assembly, CFO From: Debra Schnabel, Manager, Haines Borough Re: Excise Taxes generally, selected states and municipal levies What is an 'Excise Tax' An excise tax is an indirect tax on the sale of a particular good or service such as fuel, tobacco and alcohol. Indirect means the tax is not directly paid by an individual consumer — instead, the government levies the tax on the producer or merchant, who passes it onto the consumer by including it in the product's price. Excise taxes are imposed by all levels of government — federal, state and municipal. These taxes fall into one of two categories: ad valorem and specific. Ad valorem excise taxes are fixed percentage rates assessed on particular goods or services. Specific taxes are fixed dollar amounts applied to certain purchases. What is an ‘Indirect Tax’ An indirect tax is collected by one entity in the supply chain (usually a producer or retailer) and paid to the government, but it is passed on to the consumer as part of the purchase price of a good or service. The consumer is ultimately paying the tax by paying more for the product. Indirect taxes are defined by contrasting them with direct taxes. Indirect taxes can be defined as taxation on an individual or entity, which is ultimately paid for by another person. The body that collects the tax will then remit it to the government. But in the case of direct taxes, the person immediately paying the tax is the person that the government is seeking to tax.

  • Taxing Energy Use 2019: Country Note – China
    CHINA 1 │ Taxing Energy Use 2019: Country Note – China This note explains how China taxes energy use. The note shows the distribution of effective energy tax rates – the sum of fuel excise taxes, explicit carbon taxes, and electricity excise taxes, net of applicable exemptions, rate reductions, and refunds – across all domestic energy use. It also details the country-specific assumptions made when calculating effective energy tax rates and matching tax rates to the corresponding energy base. The note complements the Taxing Energy Use 2019 report that is available at http://oe.cd/TEU2019. The report analyses where OECD and G20 countries stand in deploying energy and carbon taxes, tracks progress made, and makes actionable recommendations on how governments could do better to use taxes to reach environmental and climate goals. The general methodology employed to calculate effective energy tax rates and assign tax rates to the energy base is explained in Chapter 1 of the report. The official energy tax profile for China can be found in Chapter 2 of the report. Chapter 3 additionally shows effective carbon tax rates per tonne of CO2, and presents the corresponding carbon tax profiles for all countries. The report also contains StatLinks to the official data. Structure of energy taxation in China In China, the Refined Oil Excise Tax (成品油消费税) applies to gasoline, naphtha, solvent and lubricating oil at a uniform rate of CNY 1.52 per litre, as well as to diesel, and fuel oil at a uniform rate of CNY 1.2 per litre. Revenues are earmarked for transport funding and green purposes.

  • Impact of Vat Raise on Russian Economy
    E3S Web of Conferences 210, 13028 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021013028 ITSE-2020 Impact of vat raise on Russian economy Galina Semenova1,2,* 1Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, 36, Stremyanny lane, Moscow, 117997, Russia 2Moscow Region State University, 24, Very Voloshinoy street, city of Mytishi, Moscow region, 141014, Russia Abstract. The entire taxation system works state-wise, being the primary source for the budget formation and treasury replenishment. Value added tax (VAT) plays a major role in the national economy. Thus, any manipulations on the tax will immediately affect the economy. VAT raise will adversely impact the economy and result in curbing the motivation of the society for entrepreneurial activity. Raise in the VAT rate may indirectly affect the collection of personal income taxes (PIT) and excise duties because of the higher pressure on the economy and escalation of inflation, lower effective demand and lower level of consumption due to rising prices. Tax novations may lead to serious consequences: increase in the tax burden, higher prices for the majority of goods and services, lower consumer demand, escalation of inflation, a worse situation in small and medium entrepreneurship, a slowdown in economic growth. Subject of the study is the value added taxation. Goal of the research is to prove the necessity and significance of the VAT hike. Methodology. The VAT rates in 2017 for European countries and Russia and indices of industrial production and business confidence were systematized. 1 Introduction The Ministry of Finance suggested in spring 2017 to increase the basic rate of VAT in Russia to 22% as a part of a "tax maneuver".

    Re Imports of Cyprus Potatoes: E.C. Commission v. Ireland (Case 288/83) Before the Court of Justice of the European Communities ECJ (Presiding, Lord Mackenzie Stuart C.J.; Bosco, Due and Kakouris PP.C.; Pescatore, Koopmans, Everling, Bahlmann and Galmot JJ.) M. Marco Darmon Advocate General. 11 June 1985 Application under Article 169 EEC. Imports. Quantitative restrictions. Article 30 EEC prohibits, in trade between member-States, all public bans on imports and all other restrictive measures in the form of import licences or other similar procedures. [20] Constitutional law. Community law and national law. The E.C. Commission cannot, even by approving expressly or by implication a measure adopted unilaterally by a member-State and whether or not there has been prior consultation, confer on such State the right to maintain in force provisions which are objectively contrary to Community law. [22] Agriculture. Common organisation of markets. Inter-State trade. Agricultural products (in casu potatoes) in respect of which a common organisation of the market has not been established are subject to the general rules of the Common Market with regard to import, export and movement within the Community. A member-State may not, therefore, rely on the special rules of Article 39 et seq. to derogate from those rules in respect of such a product. [23] Imports. Free circulation. Articles 9, 10 and 30 EECapply without distinction to products originating in the member-States and to those coming from non-member countries and put into 'free circulation' within the Community. Once the latter have been duly imported into the Community they are definitively and wholly assimilated to products originating in member-States.

  • Energy Pricing Policy in Iran Politika Određivanja Cijena
    Davood Manzoor Ministry of Energy Teheran, Iran HR9600065 ENERGY PRICING POLICY IN IRAN Abstract: Low energy prices in Iran do not reflect economic costs. Further distortions exist in the tariff structures of most energy sources and in their relative prices. Price reform is a key policy element for achieving increased energy conservation and economic substitution. Subsidies should be made transparent and explained by the Government, and, when eliminated, they could be compensated by target measures or direct subsidies for low income households. Price reforms are under way, with some caution though, because of possible political and inflationary consequences. In order to better understand the need for price reforms a brief analysis of the current energy pricing policy is provided here. POLITIKA ODREĐIVANJA CIJENA ENERGENATA U IRANU Sažetak: Niske cijene energije u Iranu ne odražavaju stvarne njene troškove. Nadalje, postoje deformacije u tarifnoj strukturi za većinu energetskih izvora, kao i u njihovim relativnim cijenama. Reforma cijena je ključni element politike usmjeren na postizanje boljeg čuvanja energije i gospodarske zamjene. Vlada treba u potpunosti predstaviti i objasniti subvencije, a nakon što ih ukine treba ih nadomjestiti ciljanim mjerama ili izravnim subvencijama za kućanstva s niskim prihodima. Reforme cijena su u tijeku, premda uz veliki oprez zbog mogućih političkih i posljedica inflacije. Da bi se bolje razumjela potreba za reformom cijena, ovdje se daje kratka analiza sadašnje politike njihovog određivanja. 1. The price Fixing Procedures in Iran Proposals for tariff increases are submitted to the Plan and Budget Organization (PBO) by the Ministry of Energy (MOE) for electricity and by the Ministry of Petroleum for oil products and natural gas.
