  • i like taxes because i'm poor and i get money. but i would really rather pay taxes if i had enough work to be rich enough to be taxed

  • provided they don't change the rules yet again, your pension will amount to about 200-300$ a month more than the guy who worked under the table his whole life. Look up the Guaranteed Income Supplement, and see how for every $1000 per year of CPP you get, you'll get $600 less in GIS. How much are you saving each month? Take a guess how much a person can save IN CASH each month when they don't pay taxes. Save your cash, don't be dependent on the government, then you wont be a tax paying sucker

see all

  • um.............taxes pay for NONE of that shit, it ALL goes to interest on the debt to foreign bankers, who hijacked the government to let them print our money for us AT INTEREST.

    The interest will NEVER be paid, because there is NO money to pay it. Time to get off our fat asses and do something.....................­......well????????

  • LoL! I thought this was a joke put on by supporters of the Ooooo "Underground Economy" SCARY! Made me want to not pay taxes. . .oh wait, thats everyday.

  • This video is unfiltered nonsense supported in part by your tax dollars. The CRA is completely out of touch with Canadians. The underground economy is much more complex than this video suggests. Moonlighting is only one aspect of a much bigger realm of economic exchange. The CRA doesn't even believe that underground economies exist when there is no recession. Do your homework: Kijiji, flea markets, farmers markets, and so on are all parts of the underground economy. This is fear mongering.

  • Great video. The fact is that E-Health, government parties help friends by hiring them into the Government, stuff their pockets with Money from Tax payers then stopped the project and let their friends go. Companies that contribute heavily into parties are awarded good contracts. The Big 3 got the bailout money then paid $1 million to the executives. So tell me the Butterfly effect of corruption.

  • I love the stupid people who work under the table for most of their lives and then have the gall to be suprised that they have no pension to speak of, all the while they thought they were "stickin' it to big government" never realizing that they were just stickin' it to themselves. Bend over blowhards, you just cheated yourself out of a pension. HA!

  • EI is separated from income taxes. In other words, the underground economy does not affect EI. In other instances the government has used EI funds to pay for other services (before the economic colapse).

  • @belkey INR.

  • You should have more views you did a great job
