I do not really care about corrupt state officials, I always believe that the taxes I pay have a positive impact on the development of the country, especially the tax crypto, where I position the tax as a compulsory contribution to the balance of life, if I do not obey the rules, then I will very greedy and use all means to become a monster.

The lesson here to avoid getting politicians in your government and to avoid seeing your tax money that will be wasted and will be corrupted by the politicians then you should not vote the same person again the next election and you should be careful enough to choose the right people to pay taxes and so on.

As I see it, paying taxes is unpleasant, but corrupt authorities stealing our money are much worse. If you pay taxes, you should see that there is something going on on your taxes in the country like improving urban areas or appropriate social pensions. Otherweise noone wants to pay taxes

We benefit from it. To what degree that's a different question. Paying taxes guarantees us services in return. Rights to vote, education, health care and other things. In third world countries this isn't as visible as say USA.
Also, a lot of people feel like they have to pay tax because they are a citizen. It makes them feel safe like the government will be for them instead of against them.

There are many reasons. The biggest reason being that the government returns their services instead. Roads, hospitals, educational institutions etc.... The taxes you pay aren't being thrown away. They are being put to good (hopefully) use. Now, obviously this will not be true in every country or nation. It really depends on your people.

Simply the taxes you pay goes to many places like paying the salaries of the government workers and also our taxes can help peoples like in charities, foundation to help childs to get shelters in addition taxes can also help our community or country to grow to ensure roads to have safe trips and such building and new project on parks and many more.

I think we are born to pay taxes. Not only for the government sake but also for us, for example.

If you pay taxes to the government you have a right that they will help you, like if you become a senior citizen they will give back to you what you have given to the government though they will give you a money per month.

We should pay taxes for our country to grow. And we can have a good economy

Its redistribution and some say the first step to socialisation of a society.   People dont agree to pay taxes, its part of the burden they bare on birth really.   USA by the numbers is the poorest nation to have ever existed, every citizen owes  $70,000 in US treasury debt from the moment they are born till they die.   Other nations you can at least start off at zero but here the continual taxation is required to balance the debt; its not optional !  Even a baby pays taxes if you include the sales tax and tariffs levied on the goods they require to live.    Thats the sadest thing about taxes, its often quite unfair in its burden on the poorest people who are least able to avoid it.  

A very rich person will not receive their income directly, the rich person will own the company that pays the taxes.  The company will be able to schedule its taxes over 6 years and balance losses against profits and so in sum total pay nothing quite often.  yet the rich person as owner of the company will be able to benefit from its ongoing balance sheet however that is arranged.  

The fairest tax is not to deny all money to the state but only allow the luxury goods to have a sales tax on them.   In this way your average Porsche owner is voltunteering to pay his government budget for that year with a 20% or 30% tax on his luxury sports car.  He gets to feel special and drive a mostly useless fast car in city traffic and society benefits from his wealth and the whole nation is better off.

Taxing babies or the poorest people on items such as heating or food and clothes is the way in which the poor are restricted disproportionately.

If the one country or government regulate cryptocurrency and put a rules and regulation to be follow including taxes then people has nothing to do about it but to comply this rules. Paying taxes is just a little amount than to have a big problem because you violate the rules and gain some punishment. Obedience is the best policy and there is no problem about it. Government also use this taxes for the improvement of our country and be happy to be apart of that because you pay your taxes.

There are people who agree to pay taxes because they know that it wipl contribute to theor country. If the government knows how to manage the taxes that people are paying it is okay that the workers are paying taxes. In that case there’s a fund for the growth of the economy. They can use it for education, making the highways better, good production of products, for the health of the people and they tc.

For me, it is just  way that thatvthey can help other people, paying taxes is also for us because when our parents pay taxes or we pay taxes there will be people who used it for good like building a structures like hospital, schools and also for free education. But most of the time people in the government use tge money from people to buy their wants thats why there is a lot of people who are madbto them.

Isn't it all the same really? If there were no taxes, then everybody will have more money. But since it's all relative, that extra money will just have the same relative purchasing power. Why sell you something for one dollar when everyone can afford to pay $2?

Taxation is theft. Period.

Some people are a good samaritan and law-abiding citizen so we can not blame them if they want to pay tax especially when they are earning bog with crypto.

I believe every citizen of any country that is taxable should remit the tax due. If you fail to pay tax, then I consider you a cheat. You know why? Because, you are enjoying the amenities provided as a result of tax contribution from others without any contribution from you. It is against the law if you failed to pay.

Tax is just one of the regularity of life, with this the government can manipulate the economy and even give some services that we townsmen needs.
It's just a matter of thing that even gives you the right to live or stay in a certain place without paying anything.
It doesn't have to be forcibly taken to people who has a large salary or profit but it does make sense when the government is in the verge of being corrupt.
You can't get away with taxes as long as you live there are taxes everywhere.

It was our obligation to the government, we were not excuse not to do it or we have no option not to pay it. In all things there is tax, there were many forms of tax, in things we buy, there is tax. Therefore, we can not avoid tax.

And what else remains to do, only pay taxes.

Probably most of those who agree to pay the taxes because they are aware of the obligations of a good citizen, who must comply with state regulations and if there is a group of people who do not want to pay taxes may be only a few people who do not know the rules

In my own point of view, people pay taxes because it will benefit us to have a good establishments such as schools, hospitals, roads, and etc. But there are still people who disagree to pay their taxes because some governments just only corrupts the our that we used to pay taxes.
