Yes, taxation helps mobilize the resources needed for the functioning of the state and for public investments.

It is a public policy instrument capable of promoting social justice, in response to structural or cyclical imbalances. It can also be a vehicle for citizen participation and a condition for the acceptance of the legitimacy of institutions.
