Another thing we Pakistanis always neglecting while criticizing our authorities that Governments should have to earn through taxes to facilitate people. Tell me how many things are in regulation and registered for being taxed??
Think about it!

Everything dear....we even get taxed on food (unlike any flipping western country we have ever been to). And you would realize that once you caste an eye on the receipt of your local super store. WE ARE PAYING TAXES ON HOW MUCH WE EAT! Is that loud enough for you?

Name one developed country where people are getting taxed on food.

Its part of diplomacy.. i should say successful diplomacy Pakistan elected to UN- security council Non permanent member 7th time 3rd highest in history..backed by 129 votes out of 193 total. So successful Diplomacy needs mobilization!

But we are getting subsidy on other utilities. Gas is already at cheapest rate. And we are in a condition where other government institution needs monetary backup from government. And government is paying!
