[Stiffy]

Key points:
Tax Office calculates that $8.7 billion in government revenue was lost from income tax alone
Accountants believe it's a "wake-up call" and is down to hidden income, false deductions and errors
ATO pledges to increase audits targeting those who deliberately fudge their returns

Big multinationals lending money from OS tax havens to their Australian subsidiary at inflated rates purely designed around screwing the country out of tax dollars and sending most of the profit OS is probably too hard but make sure you didn't claim a pair of boots you didn't buy or have too much business use apportioned to your personal phone/PC etc.

You still have to pay income tax if you're self sufficient. It's not an opt-out system

Also the government doesn't provide me with civilised society. Emergency services I don't mind paying for in income tax but most of the other shit is not a legitimate function of government. Income tax should be repealed and replaced with a sales tax

some would have Australia return to days of 1850s where little income tax was collected and many people lived like shit.
