Why is it important?
Rationale
![Page 6: Taxation Summary](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021502/58f9c022760da32f4b8b4f86/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Taxes are what we pay for the civilized society. Without taxes, the government would be paralyzed for lack of motive power to activate and operate it.
![Page 7: Taxation Summary](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021502/58f9c022760da32f4b8b4f86/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Taxpayers owe honesty to the government just as government owes fairness to taxpayers. (Commissioner of Internal Revenue vs Tokyo Shipping Co., Ltd., et al., GR No. 68252)
• No one, not even the State shall enrich itself at the expense of another. (BPI-Family Savings Bank, Inc. vs CA, et al., GR No.122480)
We have to understand the
relations between the State and the People in Taxation
Symbiotic Relationship (State and its People)

power to tax?

• Inherent in the State• Not to be exercised arbitrarily• Power emanating from necessity.
“x x x a necessary burden to preserve the State’s sovereignty and a means to give the citizenry an army to resist an aggression, a navy to defend its shores from invasion, a corps of civil servants to serve, public improvement designed for the enjoyment of the citizenry and those which come within the State’s territory and facilities, and protection which a government is supposed to provide.” (Phil. Guaranty Co., Inc., vs Commissioner of Internal Revenue, et al.)
Nature of Taxing Power
It is inherent but not
unlimited.

The Power to Destroy
![Page 17: Taxation Summary](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021502/58f9c022760da32f4b8b4f86/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Justice Holmes: The power to tax is not the power to destroy
• Taxation is not an unlimited power. The validity of the enactment (tax laws) depends upon the nature and character of the right destroyed. If so great an abuse is manifested to destroy natural and fundamental rights which no free government consistently violate, it is the duty of the judiciary to hold such an act unconstitutional.

Marshal dictum: The power to tax is the power to destroy
• It is a destructive power which interferes with the personal and property rights of the people and takes from them a portion of their property for the support of the government.
