Do these ppl who get robbed all the time, do they declare their true income to Guyana Revenue Authority?

What are ppl doing with that kind of cash at home?
Do these ppl / businessespay their fair share of taxex to GRA?
I am a private sector employee and cannot escape the taxex, but alomst everyday we read that citizens get robbed and most times it involves several millions of $ either in cash or worth.
GRA u need to investigate these cases.
