Revenue Canada Writes Off Over $2 Billion In Taxes Owed

This is also from the article, "In addition to the unprecedented purge of bad debt, Canada Revenue Agency spent an additional $7.8 million in efforts to slow the rise in unpaid taxes, partly by finding new ways to chase reluctant taxpayers."

Can this government really be expected to fund our programs,with this level of spending to fix obviously broken systems? How much has been spent on Gomery, how much lost in the corruption, how much spent on the Gun Registry? What about the EI situation? The list continues to grow! The obvious, to me anyway, observation, is that these people simply can't manage our money.

big suprise...
how much you want to bet that those are taxes owned by defrauding rich people, clever enough to stump the government?
EI has 40 billion in the bank, yet our millitary crumbles.
Yeah we are total slaves the international banking elite...its sad...

Sounds like a clarion call for flat-rate tax system........ <p><i>"As of March 31 this year, the federal government was owed $18 billion in overdue tax accounts About $8 billion of the outstanding taxes are owed by individuals; the rest are due from companies."</i></p> So corporations owe $10 billion, and individuals owe $8 billion . Yet personal backruptcies are up, and corporate bankruptcies are down: <pre><code>http://www.bankruptcycanada.com/bankstats1.htm</code></pre> <p><i>"One of the most significant changes in bankruptcies over the last few years is the remarkable decline in business bankruptcies and the even more remarkable increase in the consumer bankruptcy rate."</i></p> Can this simply be another corporate subsidy? If we instituted a flat-rate system, we wouldn't need the thousands of people Revenue Canada employs, and another little "empire" could be taken off the books. <p>---<br>RickW

The saddest thing here is that they only wrote off abut 50% of what they could have written off!

Has anyone looked into this? (I hope it's not next on the agenda)<br />

What about a Worldwide IRS?<br />

Tax time is behind us now, and most American citizens would be happy not to have to think about the taxman's hand in their pockets for another year. The IRS today is out of control. There are over 30,000 pages of tax code, and it takes an accountant or a tax service to file your taxes. <br />
<br />
Wouldn't it be nice if we could simplify the tax code and eliminate the IRS? Good news! The United Nations wants to do that for us. However, this creates another problem. The UN wants to create it's own global IRS. Yes, you read that right--the UN wants to control and impose a wide array of taxes, and ultimately to tax even your income.<br />
<br />
That's because the UN has its sights set on becoming a bona fide global government within the next few years. According to "the most trusted man in America," the famous CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite, "We must strengthen the United Nations as a first step toward a World Government."<br />
