why do people agree to pay taxes?

[CryptoKyddie]

Although not a fan of taxes, I do understand how they work and what they fund. The secret is low taxes and easy to understand taxation system. However, I do not like a benefit state, where people do nothing and the government pays for their home, food and clothing. I believe it should only be used to support the minority in true financial strife.

I accepted the tax payment to the government because I knew it was a responsibility and my duty to contribute to the development of the country as well as the society in which I live

Each of us as a good citizen are responsible to pay taxes as what the government required based on the law provided by each society where we belong. Because the tax that we are paying are for the development of our country such as building additional schools, hospitals, road widening and repair and many others. And most importantly to build up high technology infrastructure for farming and irrogation that can support our daily needs of rice and some basic needs consumption.

Taxes keep the nation running. In a human body taxes is like the blood and every department of the government are the organs. Organs in order to function needs blood. Same way with the government, every aspect of individual department needs funds, and this is in the form of taxes. Everything that we are enjoying like the infrastructures and government services are fueled by taxes. And besides, paying taxes is a way to show that we are under the sovereignty of our government.

They think their money will spend on the country's development, improvement of life, opening of new enterprises, increase of the country's potential, for the future generation. But most people are worried about being kidnapped.

[fishball]

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.

Well basically, it is for the benefits of all of us. And the fact that you will build your own family in the future, you are also after their needs.

[rimueng agam]

If I think most of those who agree to pay taxes may be because they are aware of the obligation to be a good citizen that obeys all the rules applicable in the country and again by paying taxes we participate in the country and if for example there is a group of people who does not want to pay taxes may be a radical group

[DanicaManunson]

I accepted the tax payment to the government because I knew it was a responsibility and my duty to contribute to the development of the country as well as the society in which I live

Without taxes, the government will not be able to function properly because it will have no funds to pay the salaries of the public servants and to implement the projects. We need to contribute as a resident or citizen of a country to help in making it possible for the government to perform its obligation by paying tax. There are times when we just don't want to pay because some people are corrupt and take tax payments for their own benefit.

I agree with you, people have no choice but to pay taxes to those people who regulate a certain country, It is their salary in doing public service but not some of them are doing that, its really unfair sometimes that people are willing to pay huge taxes but the equivalent work of the government will not satisfy the paid taxes, corrupt government officials do that.

[geopolisch]

For everything in this life you have to pay. This is how the world order is organized, that not only officials of all ranks live at the expense of taxes, but also socially unprotected layers of the population, social infrastructure is being built-schools, hospitals, roads ... pay salaries to doctors and teachers. The main thing is that the state had a mechanism to counteract corruption with the state's finances, and officials were personally responsible for exceeding their authority and abuse of power.

Tax payers should keep in mind that it is your money and your investment besides other businesses and lands. Do not let the government to interfere in your investment or money as we know that it is a currency where your investment is and not asset so tax can not be implementing on your currency. You should oppose government in this regard in order to keep safe your money.

[Paul23]

Every nation has different rule about paying their tax to their governance,,so that paying tax is not excuse due to is automatically  additional to your item if you buy the good and service,even if your not job in my country,this is the lawful way,because paying tax are necessary for financial foundation of one country to support the good services as well and returned also to their governance as used to other security and services  foundation in one country.

[Piranha1]

Because taxes are for the expenses of the government to fulfill their duties for the people. Even though we do not agree to pay them or take it as a burden, we do not have a choice but to support and pay our taxes properly.

So, in fact, we have no way out. Such a puzzle without a break. But already in corrupt countries there are ways to get around it and not pay.

I pay taxes for my country. I want to have more infrastructure built, the children's education should be prioritize and the health of the people is being funded. Off course this is made possible by paying our taxes.

[siguria]

people agree to pay taxes because that is the right thing with that money you sure your retirement and also for your kids education and government has to make those money in order to govern a state.

It is irrelevant to pay tax on your Bitcoins because these are not asset and has no physical appearance and furthermore it has nothing to do with the government so tax can not be implemented over it. Bitcoin is a currency like other currencies but is decentralized in nature so we all should keep in mind that tax is only possible if we buy a house or any place with Bitcoin’s profit.

[Serco]

Since you live in a country and become a citizen then you have to pay taxes to advance the country you live in. If everyone does not pay taxes, it may be that the state has no additional money to build state infrastructures, this tax is used to build such as roads, hospitals, power companies, water companies, and others. I think as long as the tax is well used by the government to build the infrastructure of the country then we must support it and it becomes our duty in advancing our country.

[Koko1200]

The reason is very simple, you just need to pay taxes in order to live and get services that government is providing to you. Without that you would be unable to live in those conditions.

[blogmantube]

Well i think people psy taxes to provide the needs of the government to create projects for the organization of the country and for the crisis of the country to be solve.

This is categorically false. 1) Bitcoin is taxable. 2) You are required to pay taxes on crypto gains, whether it's Bitcoin or any altcoin. 3) Its status as a currency has no bearing on whether or not it is taxed. If you were exchanging currencies, you would have to pay tax on any gains realized there too. So even if you consider it a currency, you have to pay tax. 4) You are required to pay taxes based on income and capital gains. Transacting in crypto is not a get out of tax free card. 5) Whether it is decentralized or not has no bearing on whether it can be taxed. It is both decentralized and fully taxable, and you are required to pay taxes on it.

[Stephen Gornick]

If you are a loyal citizen you will pay taxes. You can't expect from governments to enable you  health care, infrastructure, education and all benefits in community without paying taxes. All that should be financed from somwhere.
Very often people look at paying taxes just like giving something to the state and they always forget what they are getting in return.
And when bitcoin is involved don't forget that you also have to pay taxes, not on the coins in wallet itself but on transactions when you exchange it or if you run some bitcoin business.

[tylox]

Well, what can we do? Almost everyone has to pay taxes. But in most countries you also get back something from the government.
In germany we have a good infrastructure they paid by tax. Or for example when you lost your job or get sick and can´t work anymore,
the government pay the rent and give some money to life. Not much but it´s enough to live.
I hated too to pay tax, but maybe the time comes when I also need help from the government.
I hope not, but who knows.

There is a stamp duty or purchase tax on houses so I tend to agree with your idea in theory.  However most governments want to tax purchases, tax the ownership annually of a house or certain items, charge licence fees and in addition charge a tax on earning any income.   As well as that most governments dont like anyone gaining money on an asset and so Bitcoin is considered an asset and is taxable to them.

Usually they send the army if you dont pay taxes in large enough amounts to seize every asset they can, or small amounts they might put you in jail.   Unfortunately even when right the government doesnt give an option for you the public in paying their bills

[Erganadine2728]

That's government policy that must be paid. So every society is obliged to pay taxes either from the goods or from the house of land and private vehicles they are obliged for sebaian people there are also lazy to pay taxes when it is in must if not pay how everything will feel comfortable. With the tax every community so do not go around buying goods.
