Punishment??

If u dont pay your tax for a year then you will first get a legal notice to pay your taxes and will be given a duration to pay your taxes. If you fail to pay your taxes in that frame they will penalise you with a certain extra percentage and again give you a certain duration, failing to pay in that time also you will be summoned to court and sentenced to jail.

Finally, somebody who thinks on the same wavelength as me. Hey mate, look around.. I'm around that street somewhere. We should get together sometime. I also stopped paying taxes long time ago. When you don't have a job, you don't have any tax problems.

If you live in the USA and you work, or own a business you HAVE to pay your taxes, if not their could be serious fines and yes even jailtime.
What I have learned about owning your own business is you get write-offs and those are the best things to you. Anyway, I can't believe people don't pay taxes anyway. It is a part of life.
