My question.... If the government could find utilizations on the citizens for taxations on generating funds for infrastructures and other government services , why don't they invest on the citizens or support those with the potentials to productiveness knowing quite well that once they makes success, they would be demanded to also contributed to the growing structures of the economy?
What the government knows is that if a successful individual refuses to comply with the government order, they will get you frustrated tending to fold your productiveness qualities or you go to jail.
You know what? I thought of this many times in the past, this tax of a thing is selfish at times. Could you believe that till today, I can't say that I have benefited a single cent from the government? This is bad. Not for educational aid, health, or even any social intervention, it has always been struggling here where people have to think beyond the circle to make money as gainful employment that will be sufficient to solve your needs and those of your family are so scarce.
Upon all, the government continues to collect tax in various ways, and if I count it correctly, maybe in 4-5 ways for ordinary citizen (excluding employment tax and others). Recently, they still came up with a useless Cybersecurity tax, something that is the sole responsibility of the government to bear. They wanted to tax us 0.5% extra on all electronic transactions in addition to VAT and others, but people fought it fiercely and they had to abandon it. This is to show how cruel and insensitive they are despite their high corruption, negative economic remarks, insecurity, you name it.
I thought of this tax issue one day and I thought to establish my company (if God bless me with one) in another country where most benefits will be there rather than in my country. This could sound cruel to you but nothing encourages me to pay my taxes in my country just because there is nothing appreciative I can think about my country if I flashback except pain and regret that I am a citizen.
