I agree with your statement, the reason that we need to pay taxes is to build public facilities that we use everyday every day like roads, bridges, etc., if we do not pay taxes, from where the government can build the facility?
Same thing just adding also that taxes pays the salary of government employees, those who are making the laws and serving to protect the countries, without taxes there's no chance that those people will work without any compensations, there's no charity works anymore especially when it's a daily
responsibilities like those who are in  the security agencies.

In my own country, the tax is defined as a tax that is a particular measure by which the state uses its power to communicate the private sector to the public sector for its socio-economic functions. governments. From a taxpayer perspective, taxes are defined as the number of compulsory contributions that every organization or individual has to pay to the state in accordance with the law in order to meet the need for expenditures for the performance of functions and duties. of the state, taxpayers can legally enjoy the remaining income.

We have more income we should pay to the government, and their government will take the money from the worker's filing process so they can develop the country in a better way.

If you are walking on the road and enjoying a nice day at the nearby park it's all because someone paid their taxes.
Taxes helps a lot , I have seen people frowning over about how they don't want to pay any taxes and as such.
Government ensures that if you earn over a certain amount then for sure you can contribute in the making of your country. It's only if you are able to.
Taxes helps in :

    Paying the salary of government employees
    Making of roads
    Public schools
    Parks run by the government
    Maintenance fees
    Making government hospitals
    Making high schools ... The list is endless

We all use all these services at one part of the life or other therefore we can just consider it a little payment for that .
People frown how government is corrupt , it is but not entirely if it was then you woont see new projects coming up in your town or city.

It's just our responsibility to pay taxes, we shouldn't run from it because it will more or so be used for everyone out there in your country , you are indirectly helping others too through paying them , the less advantageous ones.

Also one might say government can print all the money they need , but that's not the case ..the more money a government prints the lower the value of their currency gets which genrally have adverse effects in many sectors.
People are not dumb enough to know the reasons why we should pay taxes but people who are just good in arguments are playing dumb for that.
Paying tax is one way to  help our government in making our country to progress. Paid taxes are one of the big source of funds why as today we can see and use roads, public facilities, why people can study free, why people can afford health services and can use government public services because of the taxes we pay.

We paid taxs to the system as we can pay taxes to the government. Taxes fund the military and other sectors that focus on helping people. money from that are going for creating some new perspective for us.
If you are a national of Dubai, you do not need to pay taxes for in Dubai, taxes amount to only one percent of its total GDP. They have good policies due to which their living standard has improved a lot and this is why people pay tax.

Taxes collected by the government are used to improve the living standard and only then you can say that the economy is growing. Moreover, countries like Sweden and Norway charge high taxes and in turn give free education to all, cheap health facilities and excellent infrastructure.

Taxes are involuntary fees collected to individuals or business firms that are used in different government activities or projects. These taxes are collected and used for the improvement of the country. That is why it is very important to pay our taxes. But tax rules depends on which country you are from. Whats not good about it is that we don't know if our taxes was used for the said purpose because there are these politicians or government employees (not all) who are corrupt and used these taxes for their own benefit. Corruption must stop, so taxes may be used properly for the benefit of the public and for the betterment of the country as a whole.

I always pay tax so that certain developmental projects could be undertaken within the society or country as a whole. It is with these taxes  that allows government to build the country and helping curb the issue of unemployment.

There are hidden loopholes to the common man in taxes that get the poor punished for being poor and enrich the wealthy for being so in some countries.  I am not against tax payment if there are levelled grounds for all.

Beside, those things enumerated above are only true in some countries. Some black men's countries can't justify taxes being collected as against the amenities being put in place for the citizens.

Taxation is theft. "But who will build the roads" argument is really old and dumb, people are not some stupid monkeys who can't figure out things if no one guides them, there's nothing that can not be done privately and through voluntary cooperation (which is the same as privately). Roads, military, science and so on - all of it can and is done privately around the world. Government is exactly why Bitcoin was invented - you can't trust people with power and believe that they will do as they've promised, and even well-meaning leaders do stupid mistakes that cost billions. Just like Bitcoin have decentralized economy, some day people will decentralize power to the point when every individual will be independent from others.

Every institution needs financial stability in this capitalist world to continue in its mandate. The same is with a country, as an institution it needs finances which are mainly acquired through taxes. When the people complain about taxes its mainly because of:
1. low minimum wage in a country which makes people feel as if they are being reaped of their hard earned money.
2. lack of proper sensitization of the importance of taxation to the public. Wgich creates an information gap between governments and the public on this topic.
3. lack of leadership in public resource management, in accountability and in allocation of these public funds.

So saying that its theft is more of a subjective point.

Actually, it's not so subjective. A group of people takes money from you without asking for your consent and spends it on a variety of thing you don't even need or just embezzle. And if you refuse to give them that money, they would put you in jail. Doesn't it look like a theft?

Is this a real person of government shill?  If your for taxes your for armed robbery of someone who did not agree to it in most circumstances.  Taxes is how they keep you on that slavery wheel working and working as they take more and more and more.  You should be ashamed of this post.  You like paying taxes to have your kids indoctrinated in public school?  Humanity is truly lost.  Thank you sir may I have another.

This should not put in deliberation, the taxes that we are paying are not a burden for us but it is for our own good and we should not question it anymore, if no taxes I don't think that we will have a good nation, or peace and order around us, it is a big help to our nation don't take it negatively. 
Exactly. It would be that if we had a large enough income we were obliged to pay the tax. Because paying taxes is also for our benefit. As you say, with paid taxes can be more developed,
We also help others with schools built with government taxpayers and then help the community get the means to work.

The cash gathered from citizens ought to be spent on supporting social administrations, which is in light of a legitimate concern for each subject of the nation. Specifically, the measures of cash got from charges are exchanged to the change of uncommon administrations of schools, therapeutic organizations, development of streets and state guard. The extent of assessments in various nations isn't the same, it relies upon the measure of government spending for these reasons.

Taxes actually have a positive purpose, such as the development and structuring of the city. but sometimes its human resources take advantage of this, corrupt in any way. The person in the tax offiice already has a salary that is more than enough but the greed that makes them become corruptor.
Right. Taxes if used for the right purpose civilized and clean is too good. However, many places have taken advantage of taxes to do bad things, abuse, corruption, etc.
I believe that if a country collects modern civilized taxes, that country is extremely developed.

Taxation is a good thing but only when it's necessary. As I don't like the idea of other people being in control of my money.

The taxes are good for the people this will keep the government agency to operate from maintenance that could relatively help poor people to access cheap services from the government establishment like hospital, getting a concrete road and etc. This is why we need to keep our responsibility to pay taxes anyway the contribution of it will depend on how much you take or profit or getting a salary monthly basis.

I agree with you, it should be if we already have a large enough income, we are obliged to pay taxes. because paying taxes is also for our good. as you say, with pay taxes can be more developed, and we also help others with government built schools of tax money.
