why do people agree to pay taxes?

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.

there's no wrong in paying taxes as long as it is handled properly by the government authorities. In the end people will benefit with this.

I dont know about many countries regulations but in many countries you have pay taxes,it may be less or more dependent on your country respective laws.they needed it to give service to you,we know there is lot of corruption during these process but cant help,you have to pay or if caught you will be charge fine or face punishment.

Those projects that are funded by every people's tax could give them benefits if the collected money is handled properly. Sadly, most people assigned to budget the tax properly are corrupt and self-centered.

indeed the taxes on the social contract to be paid, paying my taxes to run smoothly and expecting a good reply too, how to build a business is getting better and basically I have to get it. sometimes I think when the internet technology to be material for tax payments online, if all using the internet all become easy to make tax payments online. the money we pay is used well by the government or are they taking the silent word of corruption?

I agree. Sometimes govenments can get very abusive in terms of taxes. This factor measures their intensity in corrupting the people they govern.

[Zurbuchen]

because we have no choice. In our country tax are automatically deducted in our salary. and also if we do not pay tax, we can actually be in prison. Tax here is such a big issue.

People do agree to pay taxes because it is a law by the government and we cannot refuse to that. And the taxes that we have paid will soon return for our own sake and for our countries' improvement and developmemt.

[bribed]

Well, I think you put it too simple. If you think that people with arms could just tell the government to fuck off then this implies that you think that everyone with a weapon can do whatever he wants. This surely would end up in a big mess, as in civil wars etc. Governments have to be elected by the people, they do not just empower themselves.
As for taxes, I do believe that this is well needed in a social society as everyone has to pay their share for the good of all. Its just the usage of the taxes that also upsets me sometimes, but the benefits are bigger than the disadvantages overall. So I do support tax paying.

[thecoder2017]

People agree to pay taxes because it's a government law and as an abiding citizen especially those with business and jobs it is their responsibility to pay and their taxes is used by the government in improving the country through their projects and as look to improve their economy.

[Granslam]

I think it was just passing the culture to culture from one generation? that people in the particular territory must pay the one who rules them or govern them. Same principle applied to bitcoins, even if we get it digitally, our country's government must have a portion of that earning because you earned it inside your country and people has nothing to do with it but just to follow because government also protects them from any source of harm.

Yeah if we will pay tax for bitcoin then it will be quite sure that in future bitcoin will be legal and government is making bitcoin safe for us. It is better for future of bitcoin without these nothings will give benefit people will not be sure about legality of bitcoin but this act of government has proved that in future bitcoin will be legal currency and all people will but bitcoin to have safe money for their future as I hold bitcoin and paying tax on time.

[Mike0222]

Because it is mandatory. It is said by the law.

Its because the so called government that you are talking about are the ones who is keeping the check and balance in a land or country, if there is no check and balance the place were you are living at will be full of crime and most likely be a wasteland because there is now basic or good services that is offered among the people.

if enough armed people refused to pay and told the government to go fuck itself there is nothing they could do.

If that will happen then a lot of people will just die for such a lame cause, doing an armed revolution is not advisable at this time of our year, there are many ways to over thrown the one who is governing a country so bad and armed revolution is not an option.

[Umar001]

Peoples agree to pay tax, because is a compusary Levi on eligible individual or company, for example if bitcoin is taxable it will  give more confident to the public to invest on it. Also if bitcoin is taxable there will be assurance in the near future bitcoin will lagal that will make more safe for investor, so there s nothing wrong with pain tax, it will enable regulatory body to carry out it constitution duties effective.

[Ravenangel]

You are require to pay taxes for the government to support its constituents also especially in those industrial country where the government rely on taxes for infrastructures.

[CrazeCoinz]

I pay my taxes because It's mandated by law if someone violates that will be face penalties or be in jail.
The money collected from taxes will be used to sustain government services and for paying salaries to government workers. It can also be use to funds future projects for the benefits of the people.
Although, The intention of government in collecting taxes is good the only problem here is how the government treat there people in return. That makes other people from questioning the government services for so lousy but not all.

[Blue2012]

Somehow, i think people may agree to pay taxes because at some part it helps to be part of sources of funds that can help for the development of the community and social works.

[_noname_]

Well, I think maximum number of users on not happy on such high taxes that was last in some weeks due to which many users have complaint about that and now that issue up to some extent were solve and we hope in future it will be more go to better side. And also people are paying taxes on their transaction because price of BTC is very high while if we see taxes fee which is negligible as compare to price of BTC while if you can judge other area like banks etc where they are taking very high fees on very small amount. So in mind of people bitcoin fee is very very low and that is why they are paying fee happily.

[moneyangel]

Its mandated by law and It was directly deducted from my salary so I don't have an option unless I don't have job.
Government can't survive without a support from the people so they collect taxes.

[Gudhal Untu]

I think this is a good idea, if the government collects taxes from bitcoin then this will bring a good impact, just like cigarettes then the government legally recognizes bitcoin.
