You work hard and pay tax on your wages.
With that taxed money, you buy food and clothes, which are taxed again.
You fuel up your car and pay extra fuel duty, which has already been taxed.
The car you drive requires an additional annual road tax.
You want to buy a house with your taxed money and are required to pay stamp duty.
You finally acquire a home and find you have to pay annual council tax.
You try to avoid losing money to inflation—often seen as a hidden tax—by investing, only to find you need to pay capital gains tax when you come to sell.
You come to the end of your life and wish to pass your hard-earned, already taxed money to those you love and care about, and it is taxed yet again.
I’m sure there are more.
