Maybe what you want is for businesses to be bled dry by exorbitant taxation and for the government officials to enjoy the windfall taxes, nevermind the fact that most of these businesses will collapse and many people will become unemployed. Then who is going to pay the tax now?

    Also you should know that there are many LEGAL loopholes in this country, and that a lot of those businesses who are paying less taxes than you think they deserve are actually paying less taxes legally, by using these legal loopholes that their accountants and tax lawyers have found. Why do you think tax lawyers and accountants earn so much money? Because our taxation laws are notoriously ambiguous and the jurisprudence on tax so convoluted and prone to flipflopping it is very easy to use the government's own rules against it at the Court of Tax Appeals. Secondly, the very corruption of the government itself hinders the collection process. How about the case of Shell and its so-called tax avoidance scheme, a scheme that was approved no less than the previous BIR commissioner? So you see where I'm going here, do you finally understand why the government should clean up its act first before demanding people pay the so-called "right" tax? Which do you think is the greater crime? Tax evasion or plunder?

    Both need to be resolved, I'm not saying people should not pay taxes, what I am saying is government should go after plunderers first and once they have settled that and cleaned up our shitty government, then they can start going after tax evaders. Until then, it is like the person swimming in the sewer persecuting the person wallowing in mud.
    almost all SME accounts i'm handling and those i've handled in the past. the owners do not state their true revenue. they have two books of account. the ones who are forced to be honest are those in construction but only on those revenues for LGU projects.

    as to the cleaning up of act, people living in glass houses shouldn't be the first to throw stones. who pays under the table to evade their taxes? but then corruption is a vicious cycle, isn't it. perpetuated by people who criticize on the outside but are not brave enough to do something about it. i'm talking about two sides, the would have been honest government employee and the would have been honest business employees.

    if you want an honest government, be honest first and then demand honesty from the government. if you are honest, then you would have the moral ascendancy to demand such from others.

    anyways, OT na ni

    ^another OT: but who knows, sir, in the ancient times, slavery was an accepted practice but now it's abhorrent to present society. maybe, with small steps, corruption will be eradicated. imo

    Wow.. total cluelessness. You are a mere employee and should not be talking about matters beyond your understanding. You do not run a business, nor do you work in government.

    Businessmen work within the regulatory environment created by government. It is the government that must lead by example, that is why they are called the "leaders". Your logic is completely backwards and nonsensical, it is akin to letting the carriage pull the horse. It is impossible and won't happen. If businessmen see the government using their money properly (e.g. not stealing from them to enrich themselves) they will be encouraged to pay the right taxes. In fact, many businessmen engage in philanthropic ventures and give lots of money to the poor, so it can't be said that businessmen are selfish. But if the government officials see the businessmen pay the right taxes, will they be encouraged not to steal them? Give me a frikkin break... what a whacked out fantasy world! If you pay more taxes, the government officials will be very happy, and rich! They will of course laugh all the way to the bank about how stupid taxpayers are while your left wondering why your morality did not infect them.

    Seriously doubt it..

    Anyway, let's accept your reality. The carriage pulls the horse.

    And if I'm wrong on both accounts.. that means you work in government AND also run your own business. You do realize that is against the law right? But whatever, roflmao..

    If you really work in the Government, what did you do about this SME accounts that you found out not stating their correct revenues and has two books of account? I guess you work in BIR as examiner...
