I don't know exactly how it is in other countries, but in Türkiye the there is an ungodly amount of taxes (especially towards small business owners) but people like mayors and members of the parliment pay near to no taxes, they also get paid too much and the system is spesifically built to make it easy for them to embezzle a lot of money and not get in trouble for it. There is an unneccesary amount of goverment workers the goverment simply employs to make themselves look better even though nearly half of goverment workers are completely useless, do near to nothing and get paid way too much (which includes members of the parliment. Most of them never do anything at all but sit on their asses all day, they get into their positions through nepotism and they get paid several times more than an experienced doctor. They also get to retire very early and get extra retirement benefits.)
So, is it as bad in other countries as well?
