taxation A system used by governments to obtain money from people and organizations.

Of course from an economic perspective taxation means mothing other than a way for governments to control the flow of cash in a marketplace.

A higher burden of taxation increases government wealth to the populas. This increased wealth can be spent or stored greatly affecting prices in the marketplace for the purpose of the government in power.

Without taxation, the need for a government would cease and a truer market led economy would emerge.
