We
work so hard to earn money for our family's future, our health and for our
security. We tend to double our time working from one full time job plus two or
three extra job or part time. We earn more money and we also pay more taxes but
every time we pay our taxes, it feels painful.
It's
tax time again and I strongly believe that each and every citizen of our nation
has to know where is our money is going. I admit, I am ignorant with the facts
(actually, i don't even wanna know where my tax is going.). What I knew was it
is all going to pay off the country's debt. Every single cent of our taxes
actually just pays off the interest which accumulates each year on our national
debt.
Don’t
get me wrong but I pay my taxes religiously, not me, but the company I’m
working with, Internal Revenue's cut from my hard earned money has been
deducted automatically to my salary. Its very convenient for me because I don’t
need to worry much in filling my taxes. In case I need to go overseas, I could
secure extension form online and file for tax extension. So I have no choice to
skip. It is painful, but I’ll survive. I pay my dues because I am a responsible
citizen of my country. My only wish is that my hard-earned money would be put
appropriately in good government projects and not be pocketed by a corrupt
politician.
