Tax

[mrcash02]

It depends where you live. Where I live, personally, there isn't any real advantage by paying taxes. The services don't have quality, the public workers are rude and stupid, the corruption levels are high and only a political elite have benefits from it as they use their influence and power to put who they want to work on important sectors and companies of the country, as most of them belong to the state.

Even the oil is expensive here, what doesn't make sense, as the oil is explored here in big quantities by statal company, so it should be cheap at least...

Not only are your everyday services you take for granted included in tax payments, but the taxes you pay that you may not benefit from does effect you as well.  Ill gladly pay my school tax even though I dont have kids to better society and to keep those same kid from robbing me =P

I believe we need low taxes, low taxes encourage people to pay them and to also work hard. Governments have a duty to provide certain merit goods for it's citizens. However, as a middle income earner - I pay too many taxes and receive nothing form the government.

Do you think, are we really benefited from the taxes we pay? or just politicians are benefited?
appreciate your thoughts 

Yes we all benefit from taxes that we pay. Infrastructures are funded by taxes government collects from its people. Same goes with the salary of government employees and police force and so with the funding of free education for the youth.

Tax is an amount of money that you have to pay to the government so that it can pay for public services.

[forklif]

as a good citizen is obliged to pay the tax both the land tax and the building.
but back again, whether we can feel the benefits of the tax .. ??
most people are lazy to pay taxes because they can not benefit from the tax payment.

Some of the taxes are really gone straight to politicians wallet! some were to government workers!
but tax is really important not just for the government but for the people of their nation!
TAX cover the expenses of the country, their infrastructures development, and project for the poor and the society.
I HOPE ALL CORRUPTORS MAY DIE IN JUST A DAY! ALL OF THEM!

Although we do not realize, tax has made us more comfortable. each country will certainly oblige their citizens to pay taxes. by paying taxes, we have contributed to the development of the country we live in.

[tengenenyen]

of course taxes come from what they did. roads, schools, bridges and much more.

[suyanico]

Of course we have to pay taxes, without taxes the government can not run the country. Because tax is the main income of the country which is then managed for the financing and routine expenditure of the country. The government also uses taxes for the financing of services to the public such as public facilities

I agree with your opinion. Let us not be too demanding rights, regardless of our obligations as citizens. Good roads, good school facilities that is one proof of government services to us as citizens.
Because the government needs a fee to make good public facilities.

Yes we are the collected taxes were used for funding government infrastructure like school, bridges, skyway, hospitals and government offices. Even the payroll of our military, policemen and any government employees not only public officials. Government services like scholarships, health and community services were all funded by our taxes.

It depends in the country you live in and depends in the kind of government you have. Tax money must definitely goes to people. As I can see, there is a lot of improvements here in our country in terms of infrastructure, livelihood program for the poor, public schools, public health centers and even the 4Ps program for the poor. The key is to be vigilant and try to observe around you if your government really doing any projects and programs for the benefits of the voting public. If not, then your government is a corrupt kind of government.

A tax is a mandatory financial charge or some other type of levy imposed upon a taxpayer by a governmental organization in order to fund various public expenditures. A failure to pay, or evasion of or resistance to taxation, is punishable by law.

[Lucas Riley]

The way we should pay tax should change. It should be more transparent and clear where your money is going etc.

[Akolade66]

in a country like mine where you just pay tax and you wont see the essence . its always the profit of the politicians

[magnum357]

For me tax is pay by people in the country owned by the government but id dont know where the tax go for me i think the tax benefits only in the government and people suffer that because we pay by the tax everything you buy.

It really depends on the country and the politicians who actually lead it. I know of countries who tax their workforce about 50 percent of their salary but they don't have to pay for their hospitalization, medical bills, tuition fee up to college and the government would even provide you with money if you're in between jobs. I mean if i plainly see that my taxes go somewhere then i will gladly pay them and even give some extra. But when you see politicians whose riding on these flashy cars and living in mansions, then heck no
