if enough armed people refused to pay and told the government to go fuck itself there is nothing they could do.

In principle, you are pushing people to anarchy and the overthrow of the state system. After all, in any state people pay taxes in order to replenish the country's budget. Another question is how this budget is distributed by the government, here are the questions and therefore people do not want to give money to someone.

Originally taxes were created to support the community, to help those who can't take take of themselves. It's now that we pay our taxes and can see nothing done (I'm speaking here about certain developing highly-corrupted countries). Our taxes are going to somebodies' pockets, that's why I no longer understand why should I owe something to the state. But earlier I had a thought that I must obey and pay taxes because it's my contribution to the old people's lives and stability of the country.

Actually many people who care and happy to help the country, many people like to pay taxes because all the expenses of the country comes from taxes, if the people prosper the infrastructure development will also be better and security is also more secure.

This is the real world. When you were born into this world, tax is already written on your palm. We could no nothing especially when we are already working, to pay taxes for the government. Well and good if they are going to put the money in improving the country.

Because taxes is the way to pay the employees. So that the employees get more paid on their works. That is my own opinion.

When the great Greek philosopher John Lock in the 300BC proposes the social contract theory that gave birth to what we now have as government today, the social contract theory states that the people will hand over they rights to a body to carry out they rights for them as a third party who is not part of the contract and that body should be known as the government. Who will have all the supreme power to make and executes the law since then the people has transfer they right to the government.
And the government in other to function well need finances and the only way is to formulate policy that will aid them to succeed which tax is one of those policies. So saying you will not pay tax is a crime against the government despite the fact that the government are not performing up to expectations we must still obey it because the social contract is binding on all of us.

Well whether the people agree or not, doesn't matter. The government has a sovereignty which includes imposition of tax. Taxes are the lifeblood of a country. It is very crucial in perpetually responding to the people's needs like infrastructure, health facilities, educational programs, etc. In the end, it all comes back to the people. So, it is just and right to pay taxes.

generally speaking, it is part of the government and it is codified by law. One can not just refuse and do what ever they want.There are some tax evaders and they are punished by law. If your mind is clear and you are in the right thinking, you know why tax is important.It is essential for a country to continue developing as a country. The funds that are given to projects, to armies,hospitals came from our taxes and if we do not pay tax, there will be no funds for it. We all benefit from our tax that we pay.

That would be a big mess, a group of people without a leader is dangerous to the society and self. Let's say the people overthrow the government and take control of things themselves and choose their own leader, then forms a new government with different rules. Doesn't make sense right.

Actually most people are waiting for bitcoin certainty from the government about legalization. If legalization takes taxes from bitcoin, I think everyone will agree. What is really needed is bitcoin can continue to exist, and the government supports the existence of bitcoin.

People agree to pay taxes because as a community people are too dumb to take care of themselves. There are and will be always some stupid retards who'll need protection from their own stupidity.

Smart people don't smoke too many cigs or drink excessive alcohol everyday cuz they know they'll develop cancer eventually. Even If you are smart enough to know these stuff, some people will always be poorer than the others and they won't always be getting quality food to feed themselves.

That's why people need a central authority called "government" to protect poor&stupid. Maintaining our stupids&poors without harming themselves is the government's job and smart people fund the government by paying taxes. Because no matter how smart and healthy you really are, even you may need those free healthcare, education etc in the future. Or your dumb relatives.

If everybody were smart, there wouldn't be any car accidents or smoking related deaths, or some other stupid shit wouldn't be happening. Like hitting a pedestrian with a car.

This topic is a lot about bitcoin too.

There will always be some people who'll prefer banks over the decentralized monetary systems where you have no right to make a mistake.

We do agree to pay tax since it is mandatory. We are penalized if we don't pay our taxes. And also the truth that our taxes will be used in government projects. It will also be beneficial to us.

taxes are not bad because it will make us make things easier with the taxes we pay. so everything can get better and always be beneficial from paying taxes

If we don't agree to pay for it what will happen to our country now right? People will do whatever they want, crime, illegal drugs because no government wanted to support for due to lack of budget so we need taxes for the maintenance of orderliness of each country.

Because that is the right thing to do.. if you do not pay taxes, you are going to be in a huge trouble in a few months or even weeks until your government discover that. It is very risky, specially on the US where the laws are very punishable.

i dont know whata the connection between the title and the topic,but for me taxes is an obligation,this is what the peoples part for the government to continuously govern them for the goodness of them all.and besides taxes are only part of what you have earn so meaning just a small amount that wont even get 10 percent of your income.

Tax connotes a compulsory level imposed by government and this is one of the reason why people agree to pay but we should not forget about tax evasion and tax avoidance. Another reason why people agree to pay tax is when government performs thier roles and function every citizen will also have to perform theirs.
