politicians talk about taxing citizens as "investment" in "infrastructure...I personally do not mind paying taxes for roads, Armed forces or emergency services. I DO mind paying for education of someone else, welfare, health care for others, AIDs education, ACLU and other organizations, etc., etc., etc., and other countries' handouts. mexico can step up to the plate and tax their people for NEEDED projects, but they won't because we will do it for them.
I wouldn't mind it much, either, because if that's all I paid for it would lower my tax bill below the threshold of worrying about it. I long for that day, so we can debate whether even more things can be privatized, like roads and emergency services.
