Tax Pressure on People's Incomes

Abstract

The tax system is an essential part of any country's economic structure as it provides the government with a significant source of revenue and plays a crucial role in economic policymaking. In Romania, a nation with a complex tax system and evolving economic conditions, understanding the effects of the tax burden on the population is essential for assessing the fairness, efficiency and sustainability of public finance policies. The overall objective of the paper is to highlight that in recent years the issue of fiscal pressure on the population has received significant attention worldwide. As governments strive to maintain sustainable economic growth, there is a growing need to assess the impact of tax policies on individuals. The purpose of this work is to delve into the multifaceted nature of the tax burden, examine its implications for the population and propose policy perspectives to address the challenges it raises.
