Because no one has a job, he looks around whether he can do some gardening or cleaning or whatever to earn at least a little bit of extra money due to the unemployment compensation, which is not high in Spain.
High unemployment results in additional shadow economy activities, but if they don't have a perspective for a job in the official economy.
The shadow economy, as I measure it, is...
the production of legal goods and services of the books.
That means I repair your car in the shadow, do not pay for this taxes, and if necessary or if applicable, social security contribution.
Every fifth Greek is engaged in the shadow economy, in shadow economy activities, and of course this income is not taxed.
Then you have some proportion of the Greek population who evades also income from official sources in the classical way of tax evasion.
This figure, of course, is much smaller and more difficult to evaluate because it doesn't only...
go to direct income taxation but also to other forms of direct taxation of wealth and other things.
