About a month back a small news item reported that the Central Bureau of Direct Taxes, CBDT or income tax fellows are planning to brain wash our children on the advantages of paying taxes. They will target 10 to 18 year olds to teach them the ' need for taxation in civil society.' They want to teach children about the ' rationale for taxes, how the government raises revenue and spends it, role of government in society ' and other such laudable topics. All this stuff will be included in the syllabuses from class 5 through to 12. Question is, will they tell the truth or will they be feeding our children some romantic garbage about the collection and spending of taxes in India? Will they tell the children that they will be paying the highest rates of taxes in the world when they grow up? Will they be honest about the fact that after paying so much of their hard earned money they will not get any services from the government? That criminal politicians and thieving uncivil servants will steal more than half the money. That criminal politicians are allowed to travel with fat ugly wives, drug taking criminal children, servants, friends and relatives for free at our expense. That criminal politicians are allowed free rail passes for life. That the police are a bunch of criminal enforcers in uniform who will protect criminal politicians as in Bofors and child molesters like Rathore. That once you have cast your vote for whichever criminal sleazeball who has been allotted a ticket you will be irrelevant till the next elections come along. That the government will waste your money on useless shows such as the Commonwealth Games. Our innocent children will not be told the truth. Instead they will be fed garbage until they grow up and are sickened by the truth. That is how Naxals are formed.
