This is not a message to you, but a general message I give every time this discussion comes up.

Actually, I don't know if it does, nor do I care. I will certainly not be looking into tax laws to see how much more taxes I can pay.

Ignorance of the tax law is not a legal justification for not paying taxes that are owed. Nobody is likely to turn anybody in, but as citizens, we are called on to understand and follow the laws passed by our elected representatives.

Any time we argue that it is acceptable to ignore the law, or willfully not learn the law, in order to avoid a law we don't feel like following, we weaken the argument for the rule of law. That it happens to be a tax we are discussing doesn't change the principle.
