In a monopolistic governance such as Sinkieland , where the government controls your entire life , paying to be born in government controlled Hospitals to dying and getting buried in a government controlled plot ...in between living in government built HDB or studying in government owned schools , buying your groceries in government owned NTUC , even flying off to another destination in a government owned SIA ...meanwhile using government owned utilities such as Singtel / StarHub , PUB and etc etc
all that you pay is this taxed indirectly , they even tax your very own CPF because whatever used to pay for your HDB or education must be returned with interest
so your entire life living in this island form birth to death is taxed , it’s just that the word tax is not written in black and white for you to see
