Burden of Tax

It is painful. An average Indian spends most of his income in taxes rather than Texas. We pay tax on our annual income called the Income tax, service tax on the things we eat and buy, CAS and education tax, value added tax, and the list goes on…
Tax is government’s right. The progress of nation rests on the revenue generated through it and various PSU. But with India’s slow progress there has been a rapid rise in the number of taxes livid on us.
After deducting a fixed amount of tax from our Income, why do we have to pay various taxes like education tax, toll tax, and value added tax? The income generated is being used for constructing roads, flyover and dams. And we pay Toll Tax for crossing the bridge, flyover constructed from the revenue generated by tax.
Why an extra education tax when I have to still pay the school fees? Where do the thousand & crore of rupees go? Why are there fewer roads and more bumps? Why a queue in front of banks and still beggars on roads?
And I bloody can’t find the person who invented Entertainment Tax. I pay tax on what I wear, I pay tax on what I use, I pay tax on what I eat and I also pay tax when I laugh. Is it really my country!
I would not be complaining until I realized that I fear the policeman who gets salary from the tax I pay. I bribe the traffic policemen who get salary from the tax I pay. I fucking pay Road tax for the car I drive on the roads made by my money.
Every Indian is being robbed off everyday in the form of tax. Our foreign reserves are rising like the fuel prices and still our country’s balance sheet shows outstanding loans and fiscal deficits. And we still say “Jaya He” with the same pride and zeal of belonging. What an emotional fool sirji??
At the end I would like to thank the Government for not implementing Oxygen Tax.
