Filipino taxpayers shoulder a substantial burden; however, they see little direct benefit from their contributions.
In different countries, citizens see their taxes through high-quality services, healthcare, education, and infrastructure. While no government is perfect, those blessings justify the value. Sadly, our fact differs.
Too frequently, lawmakers' attention is on political disputes instead of enacting laws that benefit society. Even as duty is vital, unbiased bodies can manage investigations. Legislators ought to prioritize policy-making that serves the general public.
I sense the disappointment. We work hard, we pay our dues, yet we rarely see significant enhancements in public services. Corruption remains rampant. Simple services are gradual and inefficient. Transparency looks like a far-off promise.
We deserve better.
We deserve a government that honors each peso we make a contribution by way of making an investment in offerings and development for its people. Leaders have to be conscious of real solutions, not distractions.
Because at the end of the day, we’re no longer just taxpayers. We’re citizens. And we’re watching.
