There is a world of difference between not having to declare taxes, and having an industry of tax filers.
In France you have to declare taxes, but everything known to the tax authorities is pre-filled, leaving you to add any special incomes/deductions that didn't come trough regular channels that get automatically reported.
You still have tax consultants to help you optimise if there are higher revenues, but it's a very niche service.
