the government should not be able to control bitcoin. Because if you paid tax for the developments you mentioned using paper currency, I think that's true, but if you pay taxes to the government using digital currency, cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are wrong
I think, in more general sense, the taxes that we all are paying to government were primarily used for a country be continue to function or work. The taxes were used in creating infrastructures, it is also used in funing a lot of government offices that works to help all citizen a country. I believe that the function of taxes would go to its full capacity if government would use it in a good way. Managing it proper should be done as since that's from the hard work of people, so it shoud be used in an efficient manner that help all of us.
Yes, the tax is used to increase state revenues. If managed properly, the aim is to improve economic conditions, development, and reduce unemployment and poverty and increase inequality.
Countries to function properly need to provide a certain amount of services to the people living in it, and those services are paid with taxes, unfortunatly tax money that should be spent in providing better wellfare and conditions to its people is taken away by corruption present in the system and then leading people to not wanting to pay taxes as they see nothing in return, its a vicious cycle, that can only be broken by educating children about their tax duties as citizens, but also making the services work properly, like the justice system, in order to have a better working economy and those having a better live for all citizens.
Despite all the people saying that "taxes are stolen" and "there is no need in spending millions of dollars on Mars missions" all the convenience of modern civilization wouldn't have been possible without taxes.
Yes, taxation is a centralized enforcement of the state's right for violence, but it helps to structurize the activity of billions of people which would have been absolutely chaotic without the government's intrusion.

it's important to pay taxes because the money we can pay is they use it to build school,park,help many poor people,making public road,give benefits for the citizen, and make one country to better country.
Reason we need to pay taxes to support the different program of the government like to build a public school for the poor people, give benefits for the senior citizen, to have a free medical mission, to make the public road construction and many more.
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.
Capitalist model does not work in every case but it's definitely the most sustainable.
Here is where capitalism would fail:
* . A War ravaged community for example, that is starting a process of rebuilding will likely not find wealthy people within the community to build the roads, railways and schools. I think collective effort works best in this case. People will have to come together to contribute, money, builders, sands, water etc
* Very expensive projects(that aren't necessarily profitable short-term) may need government intervention.
* Some welfare schemes are necessary. Examples: welfare for the disables, poor/motherless kids, very expensive health treatments etc
The best way to PROPERLY fund such schemes are through taxes/contributions.
Taxes are a contribution to the community for a range of services that serve everyone.
They are obviously indispensable, but when they pass a certain level they become a theft, and trying not to pay them is only legitimate defense.

Tax
A tax (from the Latin taxo) is a mandatory financial charge or some other type of levy imposed upon a taxpayer (an individual or other legal entity) by a governmental organization in order to fund various public expenditures.[1] A failure to pay, along with evasion of or resistance to taxation, is punishable by law. Taxes consist of direct or indirect taxes and may be paid in money or as its labour equivalent
You can voluntarily pay tax, just say on the counter when paying tax that you are a free lancer trader and you do privately event that can gather income just say your minimum income per month and they will calculate the tax you'll pay....
Yes all the reason are true and I think paying a tax of our earnings can also a big help to support our economy and make our country grow to the future. And I hope everybody can really understand why it is really important to pay our taxes in any kind of transactions that we make in any part of the world.
Sure it is important, but they keep going up and never down
I think the reason why paying this tax is very important because by paying taxes you can help your country to develop technology or infrastructure that can make your country better than before so paying taxes is very important for the country.
In every country, it is mandated by the government to pay taxes and it is indicated in the government law. If we do not pay taxes the government might sue us for not paying the taxes and the surgers and penalties are even much higher.
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.

Yes, in other words, by paying taxes, you are contributing to development in your country, "from us for us".
Most taxes are mandatory in many countries, if avoiding taxes, it will automatically make the state angry and threaten severe penalties to prison, so I'm sure that most people pay taxes because they are forced.
We pay taxes for public order, not because of economical reasons only. If you make it free, nobody wants to pay taxes for sure, but it's also really needed when we think about the general image of countries. Some money must be supplied to support public order.
The reason that we need to pay a tax is for government activities specifically projects, infrastructure and many more. And we pay a tax for the development of a certain country and also an obligation of an individual. Not only based in paying a tax the development of a country.
The development of a country is depends on the handling of a president/leader.

This is a simple economy class they teach us in the school. We need to pay taxes in order for a country to operate normally it is so obvious.
Government is responsible for the betterment and welfare of a country and it's citizens.For this betterment government needs money which they get from the taxes paid by the common people.So it is compulsory for everyone in the country to pay tax timely.People should pay taxes in order to live a better and a more comfortable life.
