why do people agree to pay taxes?

[kkukkugaga]

Because it is mandated by law. We all know that we need to pay taxes since it's regularized and we don't have any options. Also, these taxes goes to the development of the whole community. Government cannot sustain the finance of the country by themselves so they collect taxes. Thus, we need to pay taxes even if we agree or disagree.

Governments collect taxes to finance education, health care, infrastructure maintenance in the country, etc. Taxes exist in developed countries and have an impact on the development of countries, although no one likes to pay taxes.

Mark Bond, of Norfolk, England was arrested in 2010 for non-payment of tax, despite handing police a "notice of intent" stating that he was no longer a UK citizen. He told police that the notice had already been delivered to the Queen and the prime minister. He told the local paper: "Today I asked the judge to walk into the court under common law and not commercial law. If I had entered under commercial law it would prove that I accepted its law. I was denied my rights to go in there." He was sentenced to three months custody, suspended on condition that he pay off the debt at £20 a week.

Taxes are being collected for government revenues. This revenues are use in government projects like roads bridges, and government institutions like hospitals , schools and etc. With out tax collection, there will be no subsidies for this project, and will result to government bankruptcy. This will create national economic struggle, that will create chaos and terror to the public.

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.

Lol, he called them a small group of people. Well they are a small group of people, elected by everyone, and who are in total control of everything. They can control the army, the police and everything, and you wouldn’t like to mess with them. Everyone will always be paying tax, that’s it, nothing changes it.

Do you really not have idea or just don't want to think about it?. Do you know that the taxes that people pay are the money that they use also for other people. They need the money for the different projects that they plan to make, payment for the employees and many more. There are lots of things to do with the taxes that you pay. They are also the government, they manage, control the country so you have no choice to it.

[Coinsher]

the only reason this works is because the citizens are unorganized and unarmed.
if people gather in groups of tens of people to protect each other against the government there is no way they could throw anyone in jail.

How could you say that this is the only reason why people agreed to pay taxes?Don't you know that this way has been done during Jesus Christ time.It has been done a long time ago and it is proven that paying taxes has a big role in the economic growth.Taxes is the only way to help those in needs especially the victims of calamity.So I guess we just appreciate and very thankful to them that they agreed to pay the tax because it can help a lot of people.

[AmazingDynamo]

People agreed to pay taxes because they dont have choice they are on the government that taxes is must , for example here , if we want to send money or coins rather we need to settle the transaction fee without transaction fee our coins would not be the priorty or it would not be sended .Tax is important it uses for the growth .

[StGermain]

I have never agreed to pay taxes whatsoever. I was born in a country like any other in which you are registered since the moment you are born and once you earn money you are forced to pay tax. I think most people would choose a different way of financing a system.

[StGermain]

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.

Yeah, that is the official reason for taxes, but depending on the country, you may have from very little to absolute no influence on how those taxes are spend. I am particularly angry at corruption and is one of the main reasons why I hate taxes.

We have to embrace taxes, what is wrong with that? It is not that tax itself that creates our country poor, it is the government that managing the country, so basically we need taxes for us to sustain our country and of course to help those who are really in need for them to have a good job to feed their family.

[supermam]

People  agree to pay taxes because its a responsibility of anybody who have a job and people who have businesses to pay their taxes and this will help the government in improving it's country.

Tax connotes a compulsory level imposed by government and this is one of the reason why people agree to pay but we should not forget about tax evasion and tax avoidance. Another reason why people agree to pay tax is when government performs thier roles and function every citizen will also have to perform theirs.

[carlisle1]

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.

i dont know whata the connection between the title and the topic,but for me taxes is an obligation,this is what the peoples part for the government to continuously govern them for the goodness of them all.and besides taxes are only part of what you have earn so meaning just a small amount that wont even get 10 percent of your income.

Because that is the right thing to do.. if you do not pay taxes, you are going to be in a huge trouble in a few months or even weeks until your government discover that. It is very risky, specially on the US where the laws are very punishable.

[kramat]

taxes are not bad because it will make us make things easier with the taxes we pay. so everything can get better and always be beneficial from paying taxes

If we don't agree to pay for it what will happen to our country now right? People will do whatever they want, crime, illegal drugs because no government wanted to support for due to lack of budget so we need taxes for the maintenance of orderliness of each country.

[RedzoneASE]

We do agree to pay tax since it is mandatory.  We are penalized if we don't pay our taxes.  And also the truth that our taxes will be used in government projects. It will also be beneficial to us.

People agree to pay taxes because as a community people are too dumb to take care of themselves. There are and will be always some stupid retards who'll need protection from their own stupidity.

Smart people don't smoke too many cigs or drink excessive alcohol everyday cuz they know they'll develop cancer eventually. Even If you are smart enough to know these stuff, some people will always be poorer than the others and they won't always be getting quality food to feed themselves.

That's why people need a central authority called "government" to protect poor&stupid. Maintaining our stupids&poors without harming themselves is the government's job and smart people fund the government by paying taxes. Because no matter how smart and healthy you really are, even you may need those free healthcare, education etc in the future. Or your dumb relatives.

If everybody were smart, there wouldn't be any car accidents or smoking related deaths, or some other stupid shit wouldn't be happening. Like hitting a pedestrian with a car.

This topic is a lot about bitcoin too.

There will always be some people who'll prefer banks over the decentralized monetary systems where you have no right to make a mistake.
