Summary/Abstract: The aim of this publication is to present the dysfunction that the Polish legislator (in this role de facto politicians) has had for many years in the inadequate use of the nomenclature in the space of public and legal tributes for the term tax and fee. For the above research purpose the author has used, in principle, the doctrinal views according to which the use of the name fee for benefits fulfilling all the characteristics of a tax is undoubtedly worthy of unambiguous criticism. All this is done in order to obtain budgetary revenues by concealing subsequent taxes under the name of fees so as not to arouse negative emotions among citizens, nolens volens future voters, and representatives of the faithful electorate.
