No, the people in this list are evaders and many of them involved in corruption cases, the top bankers and biggest companies. The huge debt in Spain could be paid -yearly- by having these tax evaders paying his debts. About 40 billion euros from Spain are gone to tax havens every year. The debt has caused continuous cuts in health, education, research, etc and taxes has raised incredibly. Having control on these mechanism used by tax evaders will help to actually reduce taxes |

Of course, the natural thing would be to grab that money. After all, all the money rightfully belongs to the government, right? If there's some money we can't grab, it's not right. I wonder when the people and the whole companies start fleeing - would you also institute exit visas and ban exporting capitals? After all, if somebody - especially somebody with high salary, like software engineer - moves from Spain to, say, Singapore, he deprives Spain of his taxes. Which would lead to higher taxes on those who stay. So we should restrict this thing, right? Let him work at least 30 years to the benefit of the glorious State, and then he can go, maybe.

It is so fascinating you probably really believe that having government in absolute control of everybody's finances and citizens having no escape to lower-tax environment and thus the government having zero competition in tax-rate market would actually make them drop taxes. And with this kind of naiveté you hope to build a better government. Well, good luck, but I'm not holding my breath. In the best case, you fail. In the worst case, you'll actually succeed and make the government you despise more powerful, more controlling and less accountable.
