Sidecut Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Why do you lot not just follow the coversation and then you wouldn't look so daft when you but in with stupic coments. There are many reasons why some people don’t work, but anyone that refuses to work just because some rich people avoid paying tax, are a waste of space and contribute nothing to society, fortunately most young people would love the opportunity to work. And what about the:- The resulting annual tax losses are estimated to be £8.5 billion by high net worth individuals (HNWIs) resident in the UK, £3 billion by large UK companies and £7 billion as a result of tax evasion and related activities, or a total of not less than £18.5 billion per annum -:that is leaving the country, I take it that you're ok with that. Why not make it a level playing field and let everyone send there tax liability abroad? You can't have it both ways, it's either wrong or right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSmith Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 the people they employ pay tax without a loophole to pay less tax. the employer on the other hand has loopholes to pay less tax than their employees but hey you think its ok :hihi:. Without the employer the employee wouldn't have a job and clearly most employers and rich people pay tax, if they didn't there wouldn't be a benefits system, an NHS, police force, schools.

Sidecut Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Not really they contribute something by employing people and paying some tax.But not the same percentage of their income as the low paid workers do, so please enlighten us as to how the system is fair and how it encourages minimum wage earners to work for these people.

So according to you because they're employers they should pay less or in many cases no tax, is that what you're saying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have to provide me with some figures and a source because I haven't seen anything that suggests the rich pay a lower persentage of the income in tax than the poor.

MrSmith Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 So according to you because they're employers they should pay less or in many cases no tax, is that what you're saying? They should pat what the law requires them to pay and the law is set by the elected government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the law requires them to pay and in many cases the lowest paid don't contribute because they take out more than the pay in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
