"Le contribuable c'est quelqu'un qui travaille pour le gouvernement fédéral mais qui n'a pas à passer l'examen de la fonction publique"
— Ronald Reagan

Simplified Meaning:
Imagine if you had a job where you needed to pass a test to get hired. This is common for many government jobs. But there's another group of people who also work hard for the government, without realizing it: taxpayers. When you pay taxes, you’re giving a part of your money to the government. This money helps run schools, build roads, and pay for many other things the government does. So, in a way, you are working for the government by funding it, even if you don't have to pass any special test to do so. Understanding this can help you see the importance of taxes and maybe even motivate you to keep an eye on how the government uses your money.
