Why should we Pay tax

Someone wrote in Face-book few days ago titled ;

###
Why Should I Pay Tax to this Country if the money I paid is not enough to give me full time electricity and good road and good system. The government spent our money in teaching us our duty to pay Tax on time. I ask you, is it not your duty to pay to its citizen with good system? Anyone give me at least five reasons why should I pay tax??

I started to think one single point to satisfied this Face-book user but could not even get closer to half a point. Then I wrote to the user on my opinion as :


There is something fundamental wrong in Nepalese political system and has been extremely difficult to change this disgustingly polluted inherited system. Therefore, every citizen in Nepal should not pay tax unless the collected money solely utilized for citizenÅ› welfare. The more I think the more I get frustrated, and remembering my home town road, we called "Galli", This Galli has not been pitched over decade and council is still collecting council tax - Shall I pay again - perhaps not.

Without basic awareness such as "ghuss kana hudaina - janta ko " and fundamental political reform - all leaders only shout with their big mouth nothing else. No matter who comes into power such as Dr., Professor, Scientist so on.. they turn system back to what it was. So, no change again. Therefore until there is no fundamental or primary reform basic structure in the system YOU SHOULD NOT PAY TAX at all.

So called new political party shouted in very big and loud with slogan "NEW Nepal", "New Chapter", - these are all non-sense until they mean it and reform the basic awareness, at least that's what I think
