From the article it's obvious the Zimbabwean government is only scouting for a avenue through which they can prop up revenue to support their budget expenditure since Zimbabwe is one country in Africa that seems to be struggling economically with a debased currency as a result of bad policies.
With a critical look on the proposed tax on sports bet winnings, the approach by the country's finance minister obviously indicates that they only care more on what they can profit from this move with less or no concerns about the impact of gambling on its citizens.
Do you think the gambling population would see it as a fair system or they would evade paying the tax?
Nop, I don't think this initiative by the government will be anything that the gambling population is going to embrace with both arms but truthfully there's nothing they can do about it, except that they have to quit gambling due to this but it not possible either that they will all quit. About evading the gambling tax, if there's a way on that, then many won't hesitate to.
