Taxes

Taxes: Are They Needed? Through out the years, people have always complained that they have to pay too many taxes. But in reality, the government needs those taxes. I agree with Oliver Wendall Holmes when he said “ Taxes are what we pay for a civilized society”. It takes tax money to insure a safe and productive society. The taxes people pay are always used for the good of the public, most people don’t know …

…to live on without having to work. This is very important to the older generation in our country. In conclusion, I think Mr. Holmes was a very smart man when he said we need taxes. I hate to admit it that taxes are needed but in reality they are. Hopefully in the future the government will find another way to get money rather than taxes. But until then we will have to continue to pay.
