Our Navy is a joke, we have 5 Frigates and 7 Corvettes but no real warship. The pride of the navy are 2 state of the art German submarines, but the budget is tight so they are grounded most of the time since the fuel is too expensive.
Our army is even worse. Still using G3A3's, the same model my grandfather used in the Colonial War, in the 60's. The Army Bases are terrible. In the local one where i used to train, the weapon storage building had broken windows anyone could reach, and the bathrooms had sinks with leaks that apparently had been that way for months.
About the tax, i don't know if i would call it that because they literally cut one paycheck.
