Effective taxation is part of the reason that most developed economies, like the ones in Europe, are able to exist and flourish so much. People have collectively pooled their resources and trust the government institutions enough to disperse it effectively. This in theory allows you to wield a lot more power as a buyer and push down the prices charged in all sorts of areas. A seller will love government contracts because they'll be able to push through orders for hundreds of thousands or millions of units rather than hundreds that a single buyer might put in for an order.

Well said, you are one of the few people here who see things the way they should, in an economic way. Many are just being overbearing and unreasonable, if the world follows their ideas, the security and economy will collapse, but they know nothing about these implications. Taxes are crucial and the countries that pay more taxes are the better developed countries in the world. However, the government must be up and doing, they must be made accountable because if people are paying taxes and it is not used properly, it's a problem on its own. This is the reason why many African countries wallow in poverty and underdevelopment.

People are not afraid of paying taxes, what they are afraid of is the government using that tax money for the wrong purposes. In third world countries, most governments use taxes to enrich themselves instead of using taxes to create a stable economy that benefits everyone. I don't think anyone would be generous enough to know this but still pay taxes to the government.

I'm not saying that tax protesters are right, but they also have reasons for not wanting to pay taxes. If the governments of every country acted like the governments of developed countries, they could create jobs, stabilize prices...and try to bring stability to people's lives. I believe that people will be willing and eager to pay taxes instead of evading taxes as they are doing now.

Fear or not, there's nothing we can do specially if it was that been imposed by the government itself on which they could be able to apply it out directly or indirectly when it comes into those tax deductions whether we do like it or not. Its true that there's no issue if they will really be that imposing those taxes as long it will really be that be used on the right way and there would really be no involvement when it comes to corruption.

We do know that when it comes to money then human beings do really get greedy, they will really be putting up that priority among into themselves rather than into the country and into its citizens, this is why it will really be resulting into those misused of those funds or taxes on which it supposed to be that used into the development of a certain vicinity. It is really just that too sad that there are indeed places in the world whose really that corruption couldn't really be stopped and making those things on broad daylight. Is there something that citizens could do? Nothing. If you do tend to make those opposition then tendency that huge problems might come in your way, this is why we would really be rather tend to keep our mouth shut instead on trying to expose those obvious corruptions.
