Good day and happy weekend, amazing people of the hive block chain. Welcome back to my blog. This is another edition of the #hivelearners community topic the rich also pay. As a good citizen, it is our right to always pay our taxes. Taxes have nothing to do with your standard of living or your status in society; they are a levy that every citizen pays.
Tax is an imperative amount of money paid to the state for revenue by salary earners and businessmen, which serves as revenue for the government. The tax money is used to maintain the state and provide some infrastructure in the state.
I can remember one day that my man came back from the market talking to himself. I went to him to know what the problem was. My man was very sad that the government would just impose a tax on everyone. I don’t know if you will be able to pay the tax imposed on you. I told my man that was the only way the government could get this money from the citizens. If it is not imposed, nobody will ever pay that money, and how will the government run if citizens don’t pay their taxes? I told him that if not for the fact that the government imposed this tax, would you be willing to go and pay your tax? He could not talk. Taxes are very important in a state or country because they help the government run the state.
Coming down to the topic, should the rich men of the world be taxed more than every other person?
This will be totally unfair to the rich if the government should tax them more. I so much believe that we are all equal, no matter your status; we are all citizens of a particular country. Because rights have been shared equally, taxes should be equal, and both the rich and the poor should pay the same amount. If the rich should pay more tax than the poor citizens, the rich should enjoy more benefits from the government than the poor, but when it comes to levy, the rich will pay more because they are also citizens. I think we should allow the rich to breathe in peace. I understand that all hands are not equal. Instead of taxing the rich more, the government should structure the tax in such a way that it will be easy for both the rich and the poor to pay as well.
The government should be fair to all citizens. Paying tax should be a fair act; both the rich and the poor should pay an equal levy. It will really be unfair to the rich if they should pay more tax to the government for revenue since the law is equal to everyone and the government should not bring status and personality when it comes to paying tax. I believe that we are running a fair government, and both parties should pay equal tax.
This is my response to the weekly prompt #hl-w126e3: The rich also pay.
