Taxes - Good or bad? - [Closes 18/10/07]

taxing is a necessary to keep the country running. The fact that its spent on sponging, dossing chavs who have done nothing in life but firstly been adisruption in lessons at school, bullied children at school and then think its ok for them to sponge off the benefits system because they can't be bothered working or going to college is the reason I hate getting taxed.

I don't think that the country could survive without taxes, but as most of you have said it isn't being spent on worthwhile things.

For instance, on my street there are around 10 streetlamps going up, they have been stood up for about 3 weeks and the council hasn't been to finish them.

We need to take a stand, not against ALL taxes but against taxes that buy MPs an extra house in the countryside, because, eventually we will all be in houses on crappy streets with half finished streetlamps that have been left undone for a year and a house that's falling apart.

Taxes are obviously needed for our country to survive, however, they are not being used in the correct way e.g going to lazy people who can't be botherd to go out and get a job.

I dont mind paying tax.. its just a shame when the government gives the money away to low life socialists sitting on the dole.
