Young adults in Russia doubt that the principle of social justice is actually applied and think that a more differentiated approach to personal income taxation is necessary depending on people's income, the number of dependents, and the non-taxable minimum subsistence income.

Respondents were announced and ranked by the degree of significance of the event, which will reduce the amount of tax debt among taxpayers: conduct a public awareness campaign for personal property taxpayers; use text messaging and e-mail to inform taxpayers about important tax deadlines and due dates for filing income tax returns.
