Firstly, God ordained the paying of taxes even on ancient times. It was God who commanded Israel to give taxes in order for the theocracy of Israel to run and operate. God designed the paying of taxes in order for a country or a government to work and operate. Without taxes there will be no funds to pay for government workers such as teachers, engineers, doctors, etc. Additionally, there will be no money for infrastructures like roads, bridges, buildings and the likes.

As a good citizen it is mandatory to pay your task. Money comes from no where to run a country except from her own citizens. I see nothing wrong with payment of tax as a loyal citizen.
Those people are paying taxes who are considering their cryptocurrencies as assets and that is why they are paying taxes. This is totally wrong and this is a currency which has nothing to do with the government or authorities of any country as it is decentralized.

Furthermore, this is by your hard work only and government is not involved in this investment to help you or cooperate with you so do not pay tax.

If we use arms then there will be a civil war that would happen and that would be chaos and sufferings of the people living in your country.
Why did not it happen in acient Greece where democracy was born ?

Awareness of citizens to improve the state is a major factor that makes people happy to pay taxes, they understand that by paying taxes it will make the public service better.

Well some people are just honest and part of their growing up is abiding the laws of their country so as they earn something like  on Bitcoin they feel like there's a need to pay for tax on their earning but the problem are how they can calculate the payment and what category of fund income should they categories their tax payment on Bitcoin... Haha

why is it ok for a group of people calling themselves the government to force everyone to buy their services?
if enough armed people refused to pay and told the government to go fuck itself there is nothing they could do.

No no no! We are not buying the services of the government. The correct way of saying is we are paying that government to let them function well on their duty. We pay taxes to be used on infrastructure and other government services for the benefit of us. Do not complain about paying taxes and use arm to contradict the taxes. If we use arms then there will be a civil war that would happen and that would be chaos and sufferings of the people living in your country.

my opinion on the tax is very simple when the tax is issued by the people as a obligation should the government in a country fulfill its obligation to always support its people both in the welfare safety for all, should the mutual understanding between both the people or government as already elected, how big or the small tax should be and fully restored to the whole people so that the sovereignty of the intrinsic between the two, the provisions of the tax must be clear use and function so that people must really feel the impact of the collection of taxes, may bermanfaar thanks success for all of us

Tax is considered as a lifeblood in one country,  this is where the funds came from to provide for government's projects such as those infrastructures, medical assistance  and such, that is why people agreed in it. Actually, paying taxes is a good act, only if those money that we pay for taxes were properly used and not being corrupted.  How great it is if those huge amount of money could really help the citizens of a nation. 
Tax system is a good thing for the progress and prosperity of one’s country but this is only possible when the people will pay taxes. Sometimes people are paying taxes but still their country is not making a progress as it should make with that money. This happens only when the government of that country is corrupt and not sincere with the state and not willing to use this money for the progress of that country.

so what is the option if we dont agree to pay tax .
first thing is law enforcement which will force us to pay tax whether we like it or not does not matter .
second thing , if we dont pay tax then how our Govt will work ? how they will pay to Govt employees , soldier or Army , healthcare services m education and other infrastructure development ?
if you say they do scam and fraud with our tax then yes they do but still we get many things in return , if we had other option to get better facilities for all people including poor , then we can choose that but for now only govt is the option to take care of every citizen .
it is just my opinion .

paying taxes is the duty of every citizen but I'm sure that everyone would like to pay less and sometimes try to minimize the taxes.

It's the only way to give something to the community in which you live in. And My point is that there is no government services that could not be better served by the private sector. From road, to school, to police.

If this seems to be your problem , just ask how could certain people build roads, fix roads wen damages, build a public hospital, build a public school, make ordinance and order, defend their land as it is their ownership, preserve maritime, clean those candy wraps that you loiter and so much more. Do you think without a system people can leave? the problem here is that you're thinking that you dont get benefits of a taxes that you paid off, well II guess sometimes its true becasue some politicians are indeed corrupt but taxes are there to sustain your/our country without it there will be no justice , peace or ordinance that we always look for.

Paying Taxes is the reason we are getting Health services, Law enforcement, Clean streets and parks, Great Infrastructure.

Government need money to provide us a better place to live that's why they force us to pay taxes.
That's true, paying taxes is a must. In addition,Taxes facilitates the maintenance of the Libraries, Hospitals , and many other public areas are paid for by our taxes. Additionally, taxes go towards many government programs that help to support schools and the penurious family.

I have once thought same and have a deeper questioning when at most times, the tax paid to the government is most times being misappropriated. This begs the question as to why there are tax payments.

Money talks! To send the government to become wealthy! Maybe only the cryptocurrency will be able to change the unfair distribution of all wealth among the population... It is time to stop the power of oligarchs!  Angry
No, it will not work. In the cryptocurrency too there are whales and oligarchs, even more than in fiat money. There will never be a fair distribution of money, it is an illusion.

It's an essential part of public agreement between society and government. The progressive scale is now applied in more countries, so people can pay depending on their incomes, without taxes it will be hard to maintain the level of life we used to have

😂 But in some countries it is good and agreeable. But luckily, for those who earn enough to buy foods and clothes, they have no taxes anymore.

I think people still agree to pay taxes because if we pay taxes we have projects and we can help those people who are striving hard to live.

Is there any other choice? I don't know the one, though I would like to get rid of the need to pay taxes like I think many others as well. I am sure that one day we won't do this and the system change but today we have what we have

i do not agree that people agree to pay tax. people are paying taxes with pain in their heart. if people will not pay taxes, they will be facing tax evasion cases. people would pay taxes rather than facing jail.
well, it has been government policy long ago. maybe the state gets the budget from the taxes they get. I agree, that it's a bit of a burden, especially for those who want to make some business. so much tax that must be paid.
