We all know that as we earn income, we're required to pay taxes. Generally, the more you earn, the higher your taxes. But what about countries with weaker economies that don't strictly enforce tax laws? Would you prefer to live in such a place?

Let’s break this down: What do taxes actually do, and what are the pros and cons of living in a country where tax enforcement is weak? Overall, does this benefit the people, or does it ultimately make life harder for them?
As long as the tax calculation is based on a normal calculation in its application comparable to the average cost of living in the region/country I think I don't mind even though I live in a country that has strict tax application, the most important thing is the correct use of taxes, most governments use tax proceeds for personal or group interests only not in the general interest or welfare of the community at large and that's what makes me upset about a tax.

Taxes are good but misuse by unscrupulous officials makes a tax look bad and I personally with a government whose governance of tax results is not properly functioned, it is lazy to pay.
