Taxation is the process by which governments impose financial charges, known as taxes, on individuals, businesses, and other entities to generate revenue. This revenue is typically used to fund public services and goods, such as education, healthcare, infrastructure, and social programs. Taxes can take various forms, including income tax, sales tax, property tax, and corporate tax, among others.
