For any country to survive and thrive, the government is dependent on the support and co-operation of tax-paying businesses and individuals. The obligations of taxpayers is to pay their taxes honestly and on time.
In return the obligation of government is to utilize these taxes in a responsible manner to provide the delivery of government services to all of its people (both rich and poor).
The South African population is becoming increasingly frustrated with the wastage of huge sums of taxpayers money as a result of government inefficiencies, mal-administration and corruption. This is prevalent in most tiers of government as well as the various SOE's (state owned enterprises).
Essentially taxpayers are becoming frustrated as they believe they are not receiving "value for money" on their "hard earned taxes".
We, the tax paying citizens of South Africa, call on the ANC government to stop wasting taxpayers money.
We call on the government to act swiftly and decisively to ensure that taxpayers receive much greater "value for money" through more efficient and effective management of all tiers of government and state owned enterprises (SOE's), which must ultimately benefit all citizens of South Africa (both rich and poor).
If our call is not heeded then we will support any legitimate call in the future to redirect the payment of 100% of our tax liabilities to an authorised and credible institution who will be tasked to negotiate with government for better service delivery before releasing our tax payments to SARS.
NOTE THAT THIS PETITION DOES NOT PROMOTE OR ENCOURAGE THE NON-PAYMENT OR EVASION OF TAXES & TAXPAYERS ARE EXPECTED TO FULFILL THEIR TAX OBLIGATIONS.
This petition is however a compelling call on ensure that the rights of law abiding taxpayers are not infringed and calls on government to stop wasting taxpayers money.
