So a Catholic deacon is claiming that 20% of people procrastinate and that’s somehow a problem? There aren’t really any solutions proffered in this article. There are vague suggestions that it would be nice if the government offered inventives to pay taxes early but that’s not a thing so what strategies are actually being suggested here?

There's little AI anuses after several paragraphs, too, which makes the whole thing really suspicious.
