Hows the weather on your planet?
Granted a few manage to avoid paying Federal Income Taxes, but the truth is almost everyone pays more than they should have to and if you factor in the myriad of hidden taxes on fuel, phone, bread, housing etc... EVERYONE is forced to pay more than they should. Damn man, half the price of a new home is taxes, then payment of those taxes are financed for 30 years.
Our taxes are so high because of an overly large, unbounded Central Government inserting itself into areas it has no right to be, and running redistribution programs in an effort to effect social engineering. The Central Government is now by and large only a tool of force for those who desire to control others.
You facts are wrong. The bottome 50% pay total 4%. So half the people don't pay anything to mention. I am not including social secruity.
BTW, I live on Earth, where do you live?

Hi,
I re read you post and now I think you misunderstood the premise.
The problem is there is no accountability now in spending because so few people pay significant tax. Would you care how much a movie costs if you did not have to pay to go see it? In other words, if other people paid higher prices so you could see it free, would you care what the other people are paying??
