मौत पर टैक्स ?

एक अनुमान के मुताबिक, हम जितना टैक्स भरते हैं उसका महज २० फीसदी ही विकास कार्यों पर खर्च होता है। शेष रकम नौकरशाहों और सरकारी नुमांइदों के ऊपर हुकूमत खर्च करती है। ऐसा इसलिए क्योंकि हम इतने अराजक हो गए हैं कि हमें संभालने के लिए एक 'मजबूत' तंत्र का होना काफी जरूरी है!
बहरहाल, यह पोस्ट एक मेल है, जो इंटरनेट की दुनिया में घूमते हुए मेरे पास पहुंचा है। प्रश्नोत्तर की शैली में यह मेल हमें काफी दिलचस्प जानकारी दे रहा है। आखिर कहां-कहां हम टैक्स चुका रहें हैं। इस मेल के आखिरी प्रश्न पर जरूर विचार करें। शायद कुछ ऐसा टैक्स हमें न चुकाना पड़े...
