I don't know why ppl are always scared of paying taxes.
taxes are actually a great thing but only if everyone pays them and if they are spend on useful things only. Just look out your window and you will see lots of things paid with your taxes you use everyday.

why people feel so afraid mostly we have to pay tax for the government. so in every country tax is very important thing. in Canada, Russia, china, japan and top most companies paying tax regularly perfectly. so we have to pay perfectly then we get one idea on tax. paying tax is best thing it is help to our country growth and implementation. so every one should try to pay tax regularly.

I am happy to pay my taxes

I would be happy to pay taxes... voluntarily. Otherwise it's a robbery.

Robbery - the crime of taking or attempting to take something of value by force or threat of force Wink

I'm really happy to pay my taxes because it's my responsibility

If you have a job in the US dollar or euro zone, then you finally give around 70% of the value of your work to taxes and fees and insurances! I think most people are basically willing to pay taxes or contribute for the community but not if it is 70% in total. A part of the taxes and fees are used for the community, but a huge part disappear in dark canals. Also take a look at the pompous buildings of insurances and how much managers earn there and you pay this all with your insurance fee, but I just want to pay to have a health service!

People do not like to pay taxes, because it hits their budget, they do not see the results on themselves, because how many do not pay taxes will not serve us, everything will go to the pockets of oligarchs and officials.

In some countries, taxes are very high. And this is the reason that people hide their profits. I'm willing to pay 3-5 percent of my profits in favor of the state, but I'm not ready to pay 15-30 percent.

Probably, one of the reason why people are "scared" because of corruption. It is evident in most countries that people in authority or in government "steal" the taxes need to be use for infrastructure and development. Making the public feels uncertain on the taxes they pay. Thanks

I think it is because taxes take a big part of the salary. That instead of being able to buy good food or pay for a nicer shelter they become more in need. If only they feel where the government has been allocating their taxes i think we won't be hearing any rants. They will be more willing to pay.

many people do not pay taxes due to tax bills,
they forget that paying taxes is their duty.

And why is it my duty? Where did I exclusively sign up for it?

Taxes are no more a great thing than a band of thieves robbing a whole village and then using some of the loot to pay for a homeless family's dinner and shelter. It's still theft and it's still wrong.

Your trying to argue tax is theft? I agree I dont like it either and I wish it was less but still it literally pays for everything in your economy that functions well. Roads, schools, unemployment, government employment, healthcare

if you are lucky, and I am sure many more. Is it theft when you are able to go to school? Is it theft when you walk on a paved road rather than dirt? Do think about every side of the coin before you speak because your analogy

although probably speaks for a lot of individuals is way off base and massively incorrect.

Nothing done by government functions well. Best education is private, so as the roads and everything else. Government with its regulations destroys the economy so there are more unemployed and employed receive much less.

Do you familiar with the austrian school of economics?

That is right taxes is something scared for most people. There are a lot of people who do not pay it regularly. They prefer to spend their money for their fun, shopping, traveling, etc. rather than to pay their taxes. We don't really know the reason why they don't pay it. However, it seems they don't want to be lose out if they should to pay it.

Well who wants to be rob legally? where you can't do anything but accept it, I would agree to pay for it if my taxes will be used for development of my country not to the pockets of a the greedy government official.

That's unfair. A lot of it does go towards the development and maintenance of the country. But just like charities individuals within the system will abuse it.

But is that a tax problem? or your lifestyle? Ever stop thinking about the amount of dirt you consume? own? or as a household? Have you ever thought about where this stuff came from? and ends? Do you think this item just appears miraculously and comes from a never ending inventory of goods? Just food to think about, back on topic; If your taxes are not wasted but invested in your country, whether it's health care, welfare, better roads, state-owned energy and so on, do not you find it impossible to make a profit? Do you like to see homeless people?

Almost everything you listed could and was private and profitable in history. And it was better handled by free market. For example unions and guilds did a far better job sending good help only to those who really deserves it (for example became disabled at work) and not feeding the parasites that don't want to work like modern governments do on purpose.

It's rather not a fear but a rejection of taxes I would say.
