Tax is optional!
A brilliant observation by David Mitchell, a British comedian, pointed out how the UK tax system is based on an obfuscated set of rules that increasingly punish the decent and honest.
Seeing as it is within the capabilities of the rich to decide exactly how much or how little tax they pay, it boils down to how morally centred you are.
Far from encouraging an honest and civilly minded population, it rewards the most deceitful and morally corrupt.
It's about time our tax laws were devised by those of us who haven't got a plethora of interest to protect.
