Law-abiding citizens pay their taxes every year. It’s obviously a pain because what we get in hand is a shrivelled-up version of our net salary. So why do we do it?
For the common good: to build schools, hospitals, roads and to pay all the civil servants who work for the common good such as teachers, nurses, doctors, policemen, firemen and so on.
Taxes also pay for those people working in the judicial, executive and legislative branches of the country. From court messengers to judges, from parliament clerks to ministers.
Perhaps we don’t stop to think about it much but, with each tax payment we make, we are ensuring that when we go to Mater Dei Hospital we can get treatment, children in government schools are educated, streets are safer and laws are being made and adhered to.
