An income tax is a financial charge imposed on the financial income of entities like persons and corporations. In short, any legal entity who has a value can be taxed which somehow makes sense. To see it in a positive light is to view tax as a contribution to society.
You give offerings and tithings to respective churches so why not give something back to the country you pledge allegiance to. If your church promises to improve some aspects of the religious community and as well as to give a portion of the church funds to the needy then the government supposedly does the same with the taxes. Improvement in roads and infrastructures along with programs related to health and education are all funded by tax money.
Tax is a complex manner. It is something you pay for out of duty that goes back to you in some other ways. There are however various income tax systems that exist. There is the flat tax, from the name itself a flat tax is a tax that is the same amount regardless of the income of the entity in question.
A progressive income tax is a tax that progresses depending on the income so naturally the more your income the more tax you have to pay. It is also sometimes referred to as the graduated income tax system and in this system, there are brackets for different financial incomes that will serve as a guide for the entities on how much they should file as income tax payable.
As mentioned earlier, any legal entity should pay tax. A business or a company pays what you call corporate tax, corporate income tax or corporation tax. An individual pays an income tax based on the total income of that particular individual.
There are some deductions permitted but you have to check for these tax deductions with your tax specialists. Even properties or inheritance have taxes so make sure that you are aware of these things not just because you own one but most especially in cases when you are acquiring new property for yourself or for your children.
