Depends on what you get back from those taxes paid.
In the US we get almost nothing back because almost all our taxes go to the military.
But in places like China, there are low cost or free public places to eat all over the place.
China currently has a drastic food shortage. How then do they have places giving away free food, "all over the place"?
Basic foods, like rice, wheat noodles, etc., are easy enough to grow so they are not in short supply in China.
Think Ramen noodles.
It is the better tasting and higher protein sources China has shortages with, like beef, pork, chicken, and fish.
