Show reduce taxes by paying taxes strange as it may seem it can be demonstrated td to be true for example if the state of utah needs one million dollars in revenue and there are fifty thousand taxpayers all paying the same amount each one would be required to pay 2000 but if only forty thousand paid and the state still needed that million dollars each of the forty thousand would be required to pay 2100 2400 that is the condition that we find existing today As a taxpayer becomes delinquent he leaves a greater tax load for his neighbor in the example above the neighbors taxes were increased by As additional property is taken from the tax rolls by reason of the fail failure ure to pay taxes the load upon your neighbor becomes correspondingly greater it should be your responsibility if you can to pay bour taxes promptly so that you will be sharing in the costs of maintenance of government if you fail in this responsibility you will place your property in jeopardy and at the same time increase the burden upon your neighbor |
