I read this post on Instagram , was more of a fact page , they talked about the tax system in the old periods .
One such country astounded me , the system was simple yet effective.
So at the end of the month or the year , only the richest people were supposed to pay taxes and it was considered a big honor , then the highest tax payer was awarded in a way where he was supposed to do something good for the community , like Making road or something .
Firstly I do not take credit for the post but I do think ,this system was rather effective , how did it come to this.
People actually thought of it as a rewarding system instead of escaping from it .
Do you think it was fair ?
Do you think the government needs to look back and search for alternatives , for the loop holes ? Taking some inspiration from the past.

(Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the specific site giving information about it please post the link below if you are lucky enough to find it )

I think this system is not fair because the richest person will take advantage of this system. And of course its depend on the government if they are corrupt the taxes will get high too and the poor people are the most victims of this kind of system.

it was a nice read tho.  i like the idea of honoring big time tax payer , in that way people are encourage to pay thier taxes but now i dont heard of such system , this was also the reason on why people are refusing to pay thier tax but there was a law about it that you will be fined if you evade your tax .

whats worst right now is that not only rich people are paying taxed but almost all people now pays a tax  . rich or poor , that could be in a form when you work , run a business , buy something , etc .

The highest tax payers are elite, let's name them like that, and elite always work together with government. To be clear on one thing government is just like a company, with clear structure, and with one more important thing "guns". Who run the government has the access to huge amounts of money, teritory and many other assets, the thing with government is that every 4 years (in most countries, in some it's less in others it's forever) we have a change in many boards, comisions and all that stuff that decide how will assets be use and where.
In history you have periods and places where elites from both sectors worked for the benefit of the people too, rare cases I think. In the past we have many more cases where these two worked just for their own benefit, and that is what brings us here. In most countries today tax money is being stolen by rich class and government officials, in some tax money is being used for the benefit of entire nation.
We need to pay taxes, and it's ok to pay taxes, but that money (OUR MONEY) should be used for good things, for our own benefits, not for buying guns and making wars with other nations, not for making rich people even richer. So what we need is a fair system and what else can help us than decentralization, where each of us can have a voice, you don't need to be rich or to be a president, but if something is from public interest you should have a voice and possibility to see what is being done with your money.

Making taxes exceptional isn't a good alternative for the current period. Who will pay it in this case?

You’re referring to the past and I guess the mentality we have now and then isn’t the same. And moreover you didn’t even mention what country it was. And there’s something else you said about only the rich being taxed.

These days people are so greedy and they want to stash up lots of money and not give, because they don’t think that it’s worth giving, they just want to be the ones that are taking and nothing else, they don’t want to give out their money. Lol imagine giving the rich person a road and such projects to work on lol, they will feel you’re giving them extra expenses. Well, I do know that there are some of them that are good.

Don't use your right to vote in elections just because have to elect the candidates. Our votes are useful in voicing our interests, so we must choose honest and credible representatives whose totality fights for the interests of the people and not for personal or group interests. Millennial generation must be critical and also capable in politics. So that when our representatives work, they can issue policies that support the livelihoods of the people.

In addition, as individuals, we must be critical and closely monitoring the taxation process, and ensure the government uses the tax for the right allocation. Especially to support the construction of public facilities, such as transportation infrastructure, health facilities, and infrastructure as well as promoting education. And this is only possible if we have clean representatives in the government.
