TAX

We discussed as a class what the tax that gets collected should be payed for. Currently, the tax is only being used to pay our government's wages along with our banker's and cleaner's wages. There is no need for medical services or fire fighters or builders or road makers in our societies so none of us had actually thought of what we could use the tax for.

In the next part of NOTENUF the new elected government were complaining about being really busy and not having enough time to look after children or crops. Then someone suggested that the government should be payed and they all agreed but how was the question. There were no spare seeds so they were thinking of taking some from the citizens even though they were mostly poor. Then they thought of taking more money from the richer families. I honestly have no idea what all the fuss is about as I think the concept of tax is very simple.

There are a surprising amount of things you have to pay tax for such as your house, your car, the things the things you buy and income tax. Although it seems like a pain, paying tax is a good thing because they pay for things like road builders, teachers, and other public services.
