    You’re free to look into the publicly available budgets of governments you pay taxes toward and see a breakdown of where every dollar you spend in taxes goes by doing some simple math.

    Doubt it’s that simple as asking for those kind of information are usually behind red tapes and some are even confidential. Most people are not motivated enough to do that.

    Some countries will even do this work for you and send you a breakdown of where your money went. IIRC Australia does this.

    That’s interesting was not aware of that. Only if my country does that.

    Taxes go to “the betterment of society” in many ways. They pay for all kinds of shit. Don’t be silly.

    Yeah agree they do I guess the way they are like blackbox makes a huge disconnect to those who are paying.

        Yeah I agree they can be search but I think my point is why we have to do this. Why it’s us who has to do the due diligence where our tax go we have done our due diligence on making sure we paid our taxes exactly. Why can’t the government do the same thing. I like how Australia doing it. I hope my country I am in does the same thing.
