One more thing I hate, is paying interest. Why? Because they don't have to show you anything for the money you give them. If Canada had a balanced budget, and I gave them tax money, they would have to show me what my money bought. Like here is the school we built with your money, here is the doctor we hired, etc. But now with interest, you give the government money, and they don't have to show you anything. Do we really know where this interest money is going? Really? Interest money, is money thrown out the window. It's almost like the governments all over the planet have their countries on the verge of bankruptcy. I assume that you have to know something about math to be a government financial advisor. Any advisor worth a grain of salt would say: Stop paying interest. Tighten your belts for a few years, live lean, and pay your debts off. Then all you interest payments are gone.

@jonathanrickard237 4 ай бұрын

I'm not a supporter of the current gov't but your description of the CERB issue is mostly incorrect. The criteria was that the person needed to earn $5k in personal income in 2019 and not be working due to COVID in 2020, there were no hours requirements (a different program CRB had hours requirements). People who are being required to repay it mostly fall into a group which likely didn't earn $5k in personal income in 2019, but when CERB came out in 2020 they revised their 2019 taxes to show just over $5k in income so they would qualify. Some people were small business owners, who had previously used deductions to push their profit below $5k, and were now revising their taxes to show fewer deductions, others were likely tipped employees who claimed few tips in 2019, then later revised their income to show more tips. All of these people have a chance to defend themselves, but many have no evidence of their income. Many of these individuals either defrauded the tax system in 2019 and likely prior years, but were likely eligible for CERB when they revised/reduced their prior fraud, or defrauded the CERB program in 2020 by making up fake income to look like they qualified. Obviously, the CERB program was managed extremely poorly, and this outcome should have been fairly predictable, but a lot of the "victims" are really not victims.

Our tax system down here in the States can be a miasmic mess for anyone who does not hold a traditional job where you get paid on a regular basis and your taxes are automatically taken out. You would be considered an independent contractor for what you do with KZbin. KZbin would have to file a 1099 form with the IRS for all the income they paid you. Down here you would have to pay income taxes and both the employer and employee share of Social Security and Medicare taxes. The amount you would have to pay would be dependent on your net income after your allowable deductions. I was an independent contractor for about 15 years and never paid a dime in taxes. I traveled for every job I did which opened up a boatload of allowable deductions that whittled my tax liability to zero.

We haven't gotten the letter yet but I expect one anytime. I was fortunate to stay working because the company I work for was deemed essential. I made parts for ventilators. My wife on the other hand got the lay off notice from her employer. Funny thing is she was part time and qualified for CERB but made more on CERB than her job, which was eventually terminated because the business closed. I'm waiting for the government to realize that she was collecting more than she would have earned working. She is a smart one. She saved every penny the government paid and we lived off my pay cheque. Fortunate in one way that we were forced to stay home and could not go out and spend money on our 3 kids activities. Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to make ends meet. The government was very sloppy with handing out CERB. And now they want their money back without admitting they screwed up. The government offered free money. What do you think the masses would do? ACCEPT! Duh. This was a test run for basic income. See what's happening?

If they ordered people to stay home and removed their ability to provide for themselves, but offered a way they could make the bills while the people complied, it was a government caused problem. If the government doesn't have a way for the people to make the money back that they couldn't make because of the government caused problem, then the government should be stuck with the bill. I we make a mistake or a costly mistake, the government doesn't give us our money back and let us try again.

Hey Claus - Taxes! The bane of the common man's existence (who pays too much as a percent of their hard work) and the opportunity for even more grifting by the rich (who pay too little for the work they don't do). So, now you understand why we threw all that tea into Boston Harbor back in December of 1773. And of course, here in the good ol' USA, the IRS (Internal Revenue Service, i.e. the tax people, for you Canadian folk) has, for years, been starved of funding, so instead of auditing the rich - you know, where all the money is - most of the auditing has been of the middle class, where most of the money isn't. Doesn't seem logical to go after the people with the least money until you look at the makeup of our Congress - about 437 people in the House (lower chamber) and 100 in the Senate (upper chamber) - where about 30% of House members are lawyers and about 51% senators are lawyers. Does anyone know a lawyer who votes to increase their own taxes? Your "overpayment" problem has its analog down here as well. In 2022, a major scandal broke when our Social Security Administration (retirement benefits, disability payments, etc.) disclosed they had made huge "overpayments " and that while they had "recovered" about $4.7 billion, by the end of 2022, there was still $21.6 billion unrecovered. The problem? Many of the recipients were elderly, poor, or disabled and had already spent the money. They have little or no way of repaying it. As reported, by the time the government catches mistakes, years can pass, and the amounts it says people owe can balloon to staggering levels. Social Security beneficiaries struggling to make ends meet described being overwhelmed and panic-stricken by demands that they repay money they no longer have. And this situation was created by the very agency designed to be a safety net for the most needy. So Happy Trails pardner! Keep your calculator close.
