One of the functions of government is to divert money from the richer segment of the population. It does this by collecting various types of tariff. One of the decisions that always accompany this process is deciding how much money to collect the amount collected must not surpass what the people can afford to pay. So the rate of collecting money - that is, taxation must mirror the citizens' ability to pay. At the same time, however, the government must collect enough money so that its economic resources are never totally exhausted. Another problem, involves the expending of money by the government. The government must decide what kind of financial encumbrances it should make on its money for various segments of the population, for example, what kind of subsidy should the government make available for the education. A third problem concerns with how to avoid deterioration in the value of the money the government has collected. The government must invest in this activity that provides the highest profit.
