government CAN NEVER make good use of the taxes, becuase they are not aligned with the market, but the politcal cycle.
It depends on where you live. For some developing and even developed countries, sometimes even though the taxes given are very high, in the end when the community is satisfied, it is not considered that the government cannot maximize taxes properly, but for countries that are sometimes bad in management when taxes increase, there will always be extraordinary protests because in the end the taxes collected from the community cannot be used properly because most of them are sometimes used as a source of food by corrupt officials in the government.
But for the common people, in the end we can't do much because after all, taxes are not only a regulator in terms of infrastructure and the sustainability of a country, but currently in most countries, taxes will always be used as a binder or payment for what we get in that country and when we oppose or do not pay taxes, we must be prepared for the consequences according to the regulations in force in that government.
