Taxpayers are individuals or entities that are required to pay taxes to a government. This includes people who earn income, businesses that generate profits, and property owners. Taxes are collected to fund public services such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure. In many countries, taxpayers contribute to different types of taxes, including income tax, sales tax, and property tax. The amount paid often depends on income level, spending habits, and property value. Governments use these funds to support various programs and maintain public resources that benefit the community as a whole.
