The budget will be out on 17 February 2010 and I am certainly hoping that the Road Accident Fund gets some more money. How they are going to balance the promises of extra social welfare, together with declining tax revenues, are naturally concerning for most to pay taxes, because there is a good possibility you may see some tax hikes. Already we have a situation where 24% of taxpayers carry 64% of the personal income tax burden and 50% of the taxpayers altogether only contribute 3,1% of the personal income tax. In other words, SARS needs to try and avoid squeezing the small minority of individuals in South Africa who pay the vast majority of taxes.
