The word raja-kula-raksasa is very significant. Srimad-Bhagavatam was compiled about five thousand years ago, yet government men are referred to as Raksasas, or carnivorous demons. If government men are opposed to a person, that person will be bereft of all his riches, which he has accumulated with great care over a long period of time. Actually no one wants to pay income taxeseven government men themselves try to avoid these taxesbut at unfavorable times income taxes are exacted forcibly, and the taxpayers become very morose.
