Subsidised electricity and fuel!!! Which world are you living in mate? Govt is earning more than rupees 32/litre PROFIT on petrol and electricity rates are among the highest in Asia... keep in mind our decreasing purchasing power.
U live in lahore where u can see the govt working. I also live in punjab but in my city there is no sui gas, cng, few paved roads and most unpaved roads and above all, 16-18 hours of loadshedding... and let me tell you, my area bahawalnagar is one of the top rice producing area, thus contributing significantly in country's earnings (export) and just see what govt is doing to us. Same is the case with faisalabad which is facing 4 days gas loadshedding per week. Which patriotic govt are you talking about? we should be paying THIS govt? You must be out of your mind... Also, comparison between Pakistan and other countries is wrong. Western governments are providing their citizens with all the basic facilities so they are justified in asking for high taxes. By the way, we are paying almost same taxes as american people without most facilities. Open your eyes man... Pakistan is going the wrong way and at a very high speed, thanks to THIS corrupt and incompetent govt.
Have u ever thought why pakistanis give so much in charity and very less in taxes? The answer is CREDIBILITY... Abdul sattar edhi and imran khan are credible thats why people give them with open hearts... Govt theek ho jay to sab taxes dain ***, just like in europe and america.
As far as using roads and bridges is concerned, we pay in form of toll taxes and indirect taxes no ALL items.
One more thing, this govt is involved in killing of Muslims through drone attacks... and i m sorry, i cannot be a part of this killing...
