"We all want to help our families and share what we have, but some family members make us their financial plans. Plenty of young black kids live in depression, and some commit suicide because they are made to feel worthless when they CANNOT give to greedy families."

Netizens share their opinions on Kaybee's tweet

"Tax can be described as being 'a compulsory contribution to state revenue'. There is a difference between helping out your family within your means and black tax. Once it becomes compulsory/obligatory without due consideration for the providers' own wellbeing, it is black tax!!"

@sipu_Africanist said:

"In all honesty, I don't know where the concept "black tax" emerged. But it goes according to how people were raised. This concept is to some extent guilty of birthing the term "cousin". When we grew up in the farms."

@ManyovuG said

"Adoption of Western standards leads to rubbish like "Black Tax". If you don't want to contribute to your family, don't. We are raised and taught to help one another, less fortunate. And the basic tenet is that you can't help if you are compromised."

"And people act like we don't want to help our families. The is a difference between me helping you better yourself and you demanding that I do something for you. I can help a family member with school, driver's license, but what if he/she doesn't want that..wants money every month."

@MehlamiP said:

"There’s a certain background that allows for siblings to help each other and that background no longer exists in most families. The conversation should extend to that. It does not help when your effort feeds a bad culture."
