Yung mga doktor, wala na ngang resita, pinapabili pa nila mga homemade na gamot nilang walang label at FDA approval

if KH has the evidence it's not necessary to shame them imo.
she should slap them as outright tax evaders off-line.
how come BIR can "disturb" the small business owners with ease?

Agree on this.They have a database to check on individuals about their itr,nagawa na nila ito kay corona at pacman,why. Generalize?

Sa akin lang mahirap yung nag-gegeneralize kasi. The print ad, however good the intention, is generalizing kasi. Much better if may nilagay silang name nang doktor na nakasuhan at natalo na sa korte due to taz evasion. At least dun walang angal. Kaso HR lawyers naman kaaway. hehe

Anyway, a better ad should be made next time. kahit isa na lang amtinong doktor, karapatan pa din niya na hindi basta husgahan. I'm sure the BIR can think of a better ad next time.

its not generalizing, meron specific name eh...kung nagbabayad naman ng tama eh dapat hinde affected.

The BIR should make it clear. Fictitious character ito imho. Sana nilagay nila dyan yung proven by a court na guilty. lagay lang nila disclaimer kung LC, CA, SC na ang nagbigay nang decision para fool-proof.

The physician, a certain Marjorie Villena, who supposedly earned P1,075,080.52 paid only P7,424 in taxes while the teacher, a certain Carina Santos, whose salary amounted to P852,169.48, paid P221,694.23 in taxes.

Dapat dyan kay henares eh ma demanda. Mag file sya ng tax evasion sa mg doctor na di nag babayad ng tamang buwis, di tong gagastos ng add campaign using tax payers money sablay naman.

Ni ayaw nya ngang linis ang ahensya nya.

While there are a lot of rich doctors who don't file proper taxes, sobrang unfair yung generalization.

Not all doctors are rich. A whole lot of them are pretty poorly off, considering how much they spent studying.

You have doctors in the barrios, doctors who work in government hospitals, doctors who work for emergency services (like our very own OTEP), and doctors who do charity work.

A lot of those doctors are extremely offended by the ad.

Pero, baguhin natin. Wag naman doctor. Gawin nating OFW:

Tutal... maraming OFW na TNT at di nag-re-remit naman, diba? That's a fact. So kung OFW yung nasa ad, di dapat ma-offend yung mga nag-re-remit at legal na umalis, di ba?

Oops... sandali... bayani mga OFW... gawin natin mga prostitute.

Prostitute: libo-libo kita kada gabi. Walang taxes. High-life pa. Immoral pa. Fair naman, diba? Kung di ka naman rich prostitute, at white slave ka lang, di ka dapat ma-offend... tama?

Oops... baka magalit Gabriela... loan sharks naman.

Bumbay! May turban pa! Itong dayuhang walanghiyang nag-e-exploit ng mga pinoy... illegal na 5-6... malaki kita... di naman dapat magalit yung mga legal na Bumbay... wala naman silang ginagawang illegal.

Oops... baka racist daw. Sige... doctor nalang... tutal naman... puro masama yung mga doctor, diba? Di naman sila nagpakahirap mag-aral ng lampas dekada para maging doctor... at di naman nagbibigay ng discount sa mga mahihirap (o libreng consultation)... di rin nagbibigay ng free samples ng gamot sa mga pasyente para makamura. Sige... doctors nalang.

-

Itong gobyerno nating nagbabawal sa media ng mga palabas at sulat na nagpapasimuno ng pagkawalang respekto sa mga authority figures (nasa batas yan, ha)... ang yabang naman mambastos ng isang buong sektor ng lipunan at magpauso ng mga stereotypes na naninira sa mga taong nagbibigay ng serbisyo sa sarili nilang bayan.

-

TLDR: prosecute the rich doctors who don't remit. Don't tar and feather all the other doctors, too. Assholes.
