Do u guys actually know what is tax , buying ticket is part of running cost.

Ladycewhy:
running cost of who? Government?

ElixExo:
EVERYONE should pay taxes, in fact there should be a system that automatically deducts the tax from your account.

Totilopussylick:
so you are not in support of taxi and Carpenters paying taxes

ElixExo:

We do have a marginal tax rate, it starts at 5% for anyone earning under N300,000 a year. And tops out at 24% for anyone earning over N3,000,000.

It should not irk you my dear. If he is making profits over the annual tax free income in Nigeria, then he should be paying tax. Thats how its done all over the world. Its only in Nigeria where only working class people pay tax whereas most of the wealth is in the hands of self employed entrepreneurs and contractors.

Abeg shut up and go pay tax.

''after he pays taxes indirectly by buying the trees, transporting himself, buying machines, buying fuel, paying rents, and feeding.''

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Those expenses ARE NOT TAX. Those are his personal expenses.

How is he paying tax by ''feeding''?

Or by ''transporting himself''?

Ignorant people. And you got over 120 likes for your ignorant, dumb post.

You people want an advanced country but you don't want to pay for it.

In the US, UK etc people pay nearly half their income out in tax.

Running cost of who owns the business

It irks me to realize my weak carpenter grandfather in the village who buys trees and turns them into logs, then to chairs used for public schools will have to be paying taxes...after he pays taxes indirectly by buying the trees, transporting himself, buying machines, buying fuel, paying rents, and feeding.

In another news, after Ndubuisi gets a car for Uber on hire-purchase, after he pays taxes buying fuel, buying tickets, bribing soldiers and policemen on the road, evading accidents, and dodging more portholes than roads...he will still have to pay the extra taxes for bearing the appellation of being a taxi driver. However, those having about fifty cars for entourage alone are called senior citizens.

In saner climes, the rich understand that he pays more taxes because of more assets. In Nigeria, the rich rejoices that the poor augments their assets with their taxes.

Welcome to a country that releases budgets every year but doesn't balance accounts after the financial year. The money given to touts can pay the tax so if the want tax they should abolish agboro

Welcome to the Fraudral Republic of Nigeria.

lexy2014:


except u arent aware, everyone pays taxes already, either directly or indirectly

Olaolex:
if only everyone has an account

The VAT does not take into account an individual’s income, 2 people can buy the same item but one will be more affected by an additional 7% cost than the other. Also, as it stands only businesses operating a corporate account include VAT.



Cash transactions that cannot be readily tracked are a universal problem.

In an ideal world the government cannot legally take funds from your account without sufficient clause, which is why taxpayers must initiate the payment themselves, and that is possible on all mobile banking and internet banking apps so long as you have your Tax ID number.
