I wish people could understand that taxes when used properly will pay itself back exponentially, you should care more about where your taxes go then the tax rate itself.
The most important part is that your taxes are working for you not that they're as low as they could possibly be.
There in lies the catch 22 though because in order to understand where your taxes should be going you need a good education.
I think the primary use of taxes is salaries for bureaucrats, both the useful and the useless ones. Next it goes into corruption of politicians.
Really hard to fill a sinkhole that can expand as much as it wants.
Yes I'm reading the anarchist FAQ, how can you tell?
