When we talk about taxes and how the government spends money, it’s really about finding a balance that helps everyone. Here’s my take on it:

1. Taxation:

   • If taxes are too high, people might not want to work harder or invest in new things. They could feel less motivated to earn more money if a lot of it goes to taxes.
   • But, if taxes are fair, they can pay for important services like schools and hospitals. This helps everyone in the community.

2. Government Spending:

   • When the government spends money wisely, it can boost the economy by creating jobs and helping people live better lives.
   • On the other hand, if the government wastes money or spends it poorly, it can create a budget shortfall, which can hurt the economy.

In simple terms, we can think of it like this: Economic Welfare = Government Spending - Taxation.

Finding the right balance can help our economy grow while also making sure people don't feel too much financial pressure!
