The regime is adopting more and more aggressive methods of collecting tax with re-ports of Zimra raiding companies in Bulawayo!
The trouble with this Zanu PF regime is that is has always looked on the private sector as a super dairy cow with an udder so bigger it always met government’s de-mands regardless how big those demands were. Indeed the more often the cow was milked the more she produced!
Companies are facing the small economic hardships that government is facing and therefore could do with some tax break to help them survive instead the regime is milking them even harder than ever! Many companies are closing down and so the few remaining are being taxed even harder than ever before. This is a vicious circle but who is listening – certainly not the regime!
i think zimra have to stop killing the hen that lay the golden eggs if the state needs to collect maxmum revenue
