UDP GOVERNMENT OF BELIZE ELIMINATING BACKYARD SMALL INDUSTRY GASOLINE AND DIESEL TOPPING COLUMN PLANTS?

Belize produces raw crude oil. Some of the more enterprising Mennonites have started to refine a crude version of diesel and kerosene through settling columns, for use in tractors.
The Government of Belize, the word has spread, is putting them rapidly out of business, with a new tax intended to close them down.
