taxation
First of all remove all income taxes, Free all I.T. officials and make them to good use to serve the populace in various fields.
One may thin how the government will earn income?
An ideal family of six (father, mother, children and old parents). Just start taxing on the basis of consumption. THE electricity charges to be linked to number of units consumed.
An ideal family would not require more than one gas cylinder for cooking. First of all ensure that there is only cylinder per family. Second cylinder should be charged at double the rate. Any consumption of more than one cylinder a month to be charged extra.
Similarly for use of fuel. Fuel consumption to be tracked on the basis of number of vehicle. Consumption of over 50 litres should be charged extra. If it crosses 100 litres, the charge to be higher and so on.
The taxes on vehicle, land or flat also to be on the amount paid. Higher costs to have a higher revenue for the government. If the rate(s) appear to be on a lower side, the property to be seized and sold to another needy buyer. The IT officials can be of help in such a scenario. They should have the rates ready (moving around the locality) at each and every location to guide the registrar so that any lower cost registration can be nipped in the bud.
Similarly, for telephones, the calls or the cost can be fixed. any additional usage to be charged extra.
In case the higher rates are not paid, the facility to be discontinued or cancelled. The loss can be made good on the basis of the deposits held.
Like-wise all the services, goods need to be taxed on charged extra depending on cost. for eg. the higher cost of TV, Refrigerator, mobiles, washing machines, dish-washers, furniture, etc.
Accordingly, the so called high income individuals, agriculturists cannot escape the charges to be paid. No income tax.
For this the government has to have an assessment of the number of cattle (cows, buffaloes, land, buildings, flats, residences) one person or family owns. Then the charges can be worked out and the poor can survive, the lower-middle class can feel proud, the upper-middle class will also feel happy. No way for the high-income earners to feel sorry, and abide by paying taxes or charges to avail eh benefit.
