Tax, between ghost houses and Superbonus there is a chasm in the state accounts
The alarm raised by the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti on ghost houses has brought out in all its gravity the problem of “invisible” properties and consequently the lack of revenue in the state coffers. The owner of the Mef had spoken of “adjustment of cadastral income“, but in reality it’s not just that. Every year – reports Il Sole 24 Ore – the tax evasion opens a 5 billion chasm with regard to the Imuwhich therefore leaves a fifth on the street (20.9% to be precise) of its potential revenue. And the tax value of properties that escape appointments with the cash register cumulates the astronomical figure of 494 billion. These are the real “ghost” properties, which exist in reality but not in the cadastral maps, and those which instead become such only when it comes to paying: because they are there in the official censusesbut no one really controls or manages to enforce the payment.
The tax gap, which measures the distance between the theoretical revenue and the one actually achieved, is skyrocketing Calabriawhere – continues Il Sole – it reaches 39.6%, and in Campaniawhere it reaches 33.5%, exceeding by a whisker the Sicily which stops at 33.2%. At the opposite end of the ranking they meet Emilia-Romagna (tax gap at 11.1%), Liguria (12.9%) e Marche (13.7%). Below the national average are all the Northern Regions and Abruzzo, therefore the entire Central-South is above. Such a clear division can be explained by the endemic disease of local tax collection from Lazio downwards, which concentrates almost all of the 500 failing and predisposed municipalities there and 92.5% of the 1,135 entities in deficit. . AND a phenomenon of imposing dimensionsfaced with which even the most ferociously anti-tax parties give way: “Looking for ghost houses that pay nothing is a must, and the affair of renovated houses with bonuses is subject to precise rules“, the president of Forza Italia senators Maurizio acknowledged yesterday Gasparri.
