The reason why we pay taxes is to help our country to improve. We should pay taxes because government uses it to fund welfare and public services like education system, pension for the elders, unemployment benefits and public transportation.
your words are true. indeed in paying taxes, we can automatically help develop the country, because the taxes help the people in our country too, so our help through taxes we pay.

I think that is quite an understatement to explain the importance of paying taxes, it is basically a critical foundation of the government to provide its citizens' general needs - money runs everything.
Though knowledge is important for all, they need to fight for their rights and to correctly manage the funds they have provided for the government to not be taken over by greed.

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.


I agree with you. There are lots of expences that our government is facing and that is also for the goodness of the people in our society. Without taxes, there would be no budget that is being allocated to every project and sectors in our country and the people of our community might suffer about it as well.

I don't mind the to pay taxes if the government used it in a good way, the taxes could be used in a different ways to make our lives better, like free health insurance, new school building, or even new transportation project, and the most important it's being used to control the inflation, without tax income the country will fall apart
Paying taxes in not bad because it use to make our lives better. Government use the taxes to provide others health services, making some roads for havinf a better transportation and to protect us by upgrading our law of enforcement to guard us. Without paying taxes the community will fall apart.
it should be paying taxes is our responsibility to our goverment.they can provide public fasilities from this tax.to run goverment activity, social guarantee and other public facilities need money.some of it come from our taxes.

Tax is a form of obligatory contribution that must be paid to the government and is coercive by not getting the rewards directly, but the rewards can be received indirectly. It seems like the construction of public facilities such as road construction, street lighting and other facilities. As a good citizen we should respect the decisions that the country has made and follow the rules we live in.

As a responsible citizen of the country is a must to pay taxes only if you are eligible to do so, reason we pay taxes, is for government authority to use the tax payer money to fixed infrastructure like road, hospitals school etc.
   Why we should  pay taxes, to enable   government to run both re-corence and capitals protect.

My mom receives monthly benefits because of taxes. By her time its a pain in the ass paying for it, but now we thankful for it.

We now pay for taxes, but most people don't understand that we'll soon benefit from it. Roads and infrastructures are not the only one where my taxes went but other social projects.


You'll see it as a robbery from your salary, but you'll thank me soon once you're retirement benefits.

we live in a country with the rules of paying taxes as already stipulated. do not make it a burden, but with our taxes will prosper together, because there is a guarantee of education, health, etc
Taxes are implemented to be used for government project and programs. I agree to pay taxes if the government will have transparency in collecting and listing on where they will used the funds they collected from tax payers. I am in favour of paying taxs because I still believe that their are still decent and serious public servant taht will lead as for a better future. This will be outpr job to check and make sure we select the best politicians to be elected and govern the taxes we pay.

Paying taxes is a duty of all citizens, by paying taxes then the state has money to finance all the work and projects so that public services get better.

Although I agree that today's taxation is theft mostly, especially in non-democratic or in half-assed democratic countries, I don't think it's possible to build a society where every individual is independent from others. The thing is that the world is big enough to contain different kinds of people. And there are evil people from our point of view who are, at the same time, not evil but righteous from their perspective. Those people are able to sacrifice everything, freedom, amenities, well-being of their children and even their very lives for a "higher purpose". Their sole aim is war until victory or death. To confront them we need a strong country with a strong military and economy which takes a strong government to rule over. Otherwise a society of independent individuals, most of whom don't want to go to war (Who wants to go to war?) will be conquered and enslaved by those barbarians.

But this "strong government" shouldn't be only strong enough to protect itself from its own people while making wage slaves of them (what we can see nowadays mostly). The government should be absolutely transparent and open. Every citizen should have a right to check where their taxes are going. Thankfully that's not that hard to implement nowadays.

Actually, government is the root of all wars, they start them to grab resources, dominate other governments, to tighten their control over population. Also those wicked people that you've described use government to support their wars. You are right that regular people don't want to go to war, and without governments wars would be less common and far smaller, there would be no world wars.
Also, military forces can be private, and people can voluntary pay for the protection that they offer. And since military budgets are usually around 1% in most countries, the prices would be very affordable, especially with market mechanisms.

Reasons why we should pay taxes is for the sake of our country. Because government uses it for improving our country and building more government hospitals and government schools for us.

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.

dude I hate how my government is running the country too but how come you think that way? If you'll be the president of the country (and assuming you're not corrupt) how would you run the country without any budget?

You think roads and military funds are the only ones your taxes go through? What do you think runs the home care for elders? Your health benefits?

Stop evading taxatiom as it could help you someday bruv.

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.

Its fine paying taxes as long as it goes onto the right hand, the reason why there are a lot of people who hate government is just because they are stealing money from the people.

And also the people who seated in government are become rich because some of them are truly thief the taxes of workers, people's money they put in their pockets. There is no problems to paying tax the problem is the corruption  thats happening in many country. That's why there are countries are suffering.
    We should be taxes because it is our obligation as a citizen of any country and taxes goes the things that are worth paying for and if only the government isn't corrupting  The monies we are paying it would be a better country for everyone of us

As you said we pay taxes because it serves as a fund of the government to build establishment such as roads, public schools, hospitals, parks and etc. All of us are required to pay taxes because it is one of our contribute in helping our country to be more better. But many people refused to pay taxes because many governments steals money from us using the taxes that we pay.

Taxation is used by a government to build for an economic growth, through this we have wide road, bridges and other that made by government project that was our tax contribution to them. But I think 80% or 90% on that in a project the rest are corrupting that government stuff by their own pocket. So the return to us was not exactly from collecting a tax.
Okay we all know that is the sole reason why taxation is important and why everyone should. In the case where you have been paying your tax and still you are not getting all those ? For those who are in the developed worlds, there is no excuse for them to evade tax; moreover, it is even hard to do so anyway.

Nevertheless, I agree with anyone who does not have the things to make their life simple provided by the government and then there are just some bunch of corrupt politicians looting fund every day. I even wonder how they cope in such countries and why anyone is such a place should be paying tax. I have been to some countries with huge natural resources, but still the citizens live in penury.
