When reading this, I wanted to sound as if you are painting a picture to show us the we only live to pay taxes and then die. But I later discovered some other hidden truth.
Taxation is a burden everywhere and sometimes feels as if citizens shouldn't be paying taxes anymore. But if we don't how will the government develop the country?
The problem in my country is that we we live under a hyperinflated economy and then we pay too many taxes. In fact, there is this problem of many sectors and union imposing serious tax burdens on the people and the government allows the to whip us that deep. Aside from the statutory income tax, the illegal texes impose by union leaders cause the inflation to get to such high index. Because those selling commodities to us and those giving us services increase charges to cover the much taxes. The irony of this is that when one should be expected that taxes should be used for infrastructures development, these unions rather sit back and squander the money without and help in developing the infrastructures. The transport union and the market union don't even use the money to repair roads our build the markets.
Well, a little review in the taxes could be bring some more but inflation won't let the people feel the impact. Thank you for making us think in this direction this morning.
Some countries (governments) are more corrupt than others but what's generally universal is that the little people do the suffering. That's how it's always been and I'm pretty sure there's far worse ahead of us than behind. Fortunately for me I live in a reasonably affluent country and am doing ok, many are not though.
Who knows what the future will hold but for most...nothing good.
Ah!!! 😳 Let it not get worse. We are hoping for positive change. The problems we have suffered world over is already enough.
😀I just hope that things should start getting better rather than worsening (though this depends largely on the government and their policies.)
Action brings change, not hope.
