Tax breaks could spur economic growth in South Africa South Africa’s economic woes have impacted the SA Revenue Services (Sars), who are finding it difficult to meet its targets for the collection of tax revenue.

JOHANNESBURG – South Africa’s economic woes have impacted the SA Revenue Services , who are finding it difficult to meet its targets for the collection of tax revenue.

With little prospect of collecting what is needed by the state for the delivery of services to South African citizens, the prospects for the country’s future look bleak. The words: “For a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle,” by Winston Churchill come to mind.

Experts have said that it might be tempting just to tax high income-earners even more, but this would come with significant risks. If these people feel that they are being targeted by the taxman, they might choose to leave the country or to take their money elsewhere. This would result in a loss of skills when talented individuals leave, the closing of businesses, and consequent job losses.
