why do people agree to pay taxes?

[jhamz03]

People agreed to pay taxes because it is on their government law and its for their own good. People tax is a contribution to state revenue, and the source of government to pay their workers employees. People taxes also help to support common resources such as building infrastructure and helps to ensure the roads they travel on a safe and well-maintained. Taxes also fund public libraries and parks. Those people refused to pay tax are those people with a small income, and is not enough for them to feed their families.

Tax is one of the most important thing that we should be paying because that is right that it is in the law of the country and it is for their own good because without the tax, there will be no progress for a country and the country will go poorer and poorer as they are spending to build new projects but the people are not paying taxes so it will just make the government in debt. People agreed to pay it because they know that it is a responsibility and because of that tax, they can experience better environment.

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.

People agree to pay for taxes because this will help them and the economy grow. The benefit doesn't only go to government but also to the people living in the state.

In my opinion, it is mostly because of the reward that goverment will give to the people/citizen such as infrastructure, easy acces for good health treatment, and many more.

People agree to pay taxes due to the policies of government .So that those people who are less fortunate  will be able to survive in the community. Government collect taxes to support and provide our needs in a community such as goods which include also roads, and schools. A good citizen participate a good behaviour in order to help the community or people.

Intriguing part in this question is that taxes are one of the killer use-cases for our currencies. I believe that once government start accepting cryptocurrencies for taxes, these currencies usage will sky-rocket.

As someone who pays a lot of tax in the UK, I don't do it happily because of the services I receive for the money. My taxes so far exceed the cost of those services that I would be massively better off paying privately instead.

I don't think people agree with taxes, who would want your salary to have a deduction for tax? i think none, its been the tradition that every salary will have a deduction so i think people just aware on that and it is automatic. Taxes are your contribution to your government whether you like it or not. The fund obtain with it is being used to enhance or improve your community.

Actually paying taxes is good in general for we will also benefit from it after all. Maybe you just don't notice but you can encounter it to your everyday life.

First of all we don't have any choice but to pay tax that is base on your expenses. We have no choice but to agree and follow this rule. Unfortunately, there are some people who runs for their responsibility.

[Soranith]

We pay taxes because this will cover a lot of benefits for us in case we need it like calamity, health and so on. Our taxes will also be use for the development of our country but the problem is government officials corrupt our money specially in the third world country. You can't barely see any developments and if there will be it will take many years to finish and no matter how bad for us to see our money go wasted we can't do anything about it because all of us is required to pay the taxes its automatically deducted from our salary.

   For me paying taxes is good as long its on a right price.Because if you pay your taxes you help your country and if you help your country  you also help your family.Because all taxes government recieved they give it or build it on hospital , school  and etc government assets...

Personally as a member of a society and a concern citizen of my country, I agree to pay some taxes. Why? Imagine if we all pay our tax (with the right price) there has a high possibility that the economy will rise and also the poverty rate or number will fall. Which is a good sign in having a good country. And also it will be a big help for the people who works under the government and in some government school, hospital and other

[shezu007]

Paying taxes on every person is must because if your country economy is strong then you will feel yourself more secure and if you country is secure then there will be more development and if your country is developing then it means you are developing and every person have aim to do development in their life. so that is why every person is agree to pay taxes happily.

[jlaw007]

who doesn't agree?? it's like were born with it without knowing. In Ec, tax is like savings, bad for the whole unless properly spent in full. Why social security? why insurance? why loans? it's the norm.

[shawn995]

People are paying taxes to their government because
These taxes are going to the wallet of government and on these funds then government can give salaries to your country government employees and also doing development works for a country so that country become more develop and country people get more facilities.

All of these things were previously run privately.  Its normal for people born now but the older generation can remember smaller government, lower taxes, less coverage from central bodies.

The only time I really agree with a large tax and spend system is for health care.   People of a nation are the greatest investment any government or country could make in itself, far more then infrastructure or other ventures.

A bridge can envisaged, planned and paid for by private industry, its often possible to see revenue streams ahead of time.   A crying baby who needs care and attention by doctors in order to become a productive adult that will produce for his country is a harder case to make and also it might take 20 years to see those returns.    I will agree with healthcare for a national tax and spend government but other concerns are far overblown.

Most notable misuse of taxes is for 'defence' and unfortunately it becomes more likely that wars occur.    Most people would not opt to be contributing every week towards weapons that could destroy entire regions.   Very obviously the productive gain from war is not there, USA and arguably most of Europe spends far too much on preparations for war instead of just defending their own national borders which is justified as a national concern.

People pay taxes out of fear quite often.   I agree with taxes based on spending more then earning, never try to discourage people from honest labour and enterprise that also is a negative.

Paying taxes is the most retarded thing that government making us to do... I am just happy that i know about bitcoin and can use this wonderful currency without any taxes for income im getting.

Taxes definitely must be spent properly. If not then it would be the citizens who will suffer. Spending on wrong investments or spending in oneself, as in corruption would definitely cause imbalance on the economy as a whole and hinder the progress of a country. If you read about the history of tax, social security and insurance, it sure is fishy, like one of them is saying, "milk factory" and they have unlimited supply of "milk". We can't do anything about them now since it is part of the society but at least we would understand better what were paying for, or rather what is deducted from our pay before we even take hold of it.

as soon as your country soon to accept and legalize bitcoin, you will still be charged by taxes and you cannot avoid or evade it because that is the law and rule by governments in order to help improve the economy by implementing or improving the society. yet most governments are known to be corupt and as a result the taxes collected by them are not used to its real purpose rather they only use it for their own sake. that is the real problem that we should worry about and not the tax itself.

[Dobmader]

The reason is very simple, because if they try to escape paying the taxes to the authorities in their country they live in, they might face a heavier fine or being sentence to jail if they are being caught avoiding to pay the taxes for that certain year based on their income level.

That is one of the reasons for paying taxes, people are making with Bitcoin and they want to pay their taxes on time. If they pay taxes on time there won't be any problem for them. Already they are making more profits from their investment and their wish is to pay tax on time.

Right and then I think government will allow them to sue bitcoin openly or they will make bitcoin a legal currency. it is our first and the most important duty to pay all our taxes on time so this thing will make us more responsible, price of bitcoin is god now so it is better pay our tax and make bitcoin strong more and more, currency use to increase when government make it legal so bitcoin will be one of legal currencies in future.
