Tax

Every year we work for almost 3+ months ONLY FOR GOVERNMENT. It really hits hard and an eye opener as we barely get anything in reverse.

That’s why it’s called gross pay. It’s gross to see how much u culd have earned

Scandinavian and other countries are getting much better value for the money they pay to the government than us.

Not about the comparison of how much we're giving, it's more about the value in return we're getting which is not a lot in India.

Middleclass pays the tax so that the rich and poor can live

Aptly said. Only 6.8% paid income taxes last year while rest of the population is enjoying the fruits of middle class salaried hardwork. The worst thing is some people say that this is for country's development and all. But you can see that it is not happening when you have to pay lakhs of rupees for kids education, pay bribes to get things done in govt offices, pay a fortune for decent health care.

You don't work 3+ months for government. You work for others humans who enjoy fruits of your 3+ months of slavery
