Even then there is no excuse for not paying the taxes...I grew up in a place where when the population was close to 950 million and only 5 million registered tax payers....and that too all government employees and one could see why no services existed....even though there is wastage here, tax dollars do work....
Don't get me wrong, I agree. Tax dollars work and it does help share a few crumbs of the wealth around. I would never say don't tax the rich. I'd like to get into that above 250K amount and will happily pay my taxes.
I just think we need to nail the tax dodgers and use the tax monies more effectively. There is no reason for food pantries to have bare shelves because no one is donating supplies. There is no reason to have people living on the streets in a country with the four seasons on full display. We just take the for profit angle first a bit too much in my view. Make sure people are fed, in a place with a roof overhead and give them enough of a chance to pay their bills. It is easier to work and be productive when you're not distracted by when and where your next meal comes from and or where you need to go sleep.
