I don't mind paying taxes.. for just one example, i can see the people fixing roads with hot, hot, hot, smelly blacktop goo on Humid summer days and am Happy (in fact overjoyed!) to get it done by somebody else....you?

The difference here is that most of our tax money, esp. to the fed government, goes to the military for endless wars of choice, as well as paying for weapons systems we never use in war, but that make huge profits for the defense contractors. The majority of the rest of our tax money to the feds, goes to corporate welfare for big business, who gets subsidized by the feds, and who also get out of paying their fair share of taxes, so we get robbed twice by the feds, when it comes to corporations and taxes. In those other countries, where they like paying taxes, all of the tax money goes to things that benefit the 99%, rather than the 1%, from the money going to the military complex and corporations...

Of course, many rich people will never like paying taxes, because they are selfish and greedy, as well as hating the idea that even a small amount of their tax money might actually go to helping people poorer than them, who they see as subhuman, and not deserving of any government help, because their being poor is, of course, completely their own damned fault, etc..

What a bunch of dickheads!
Sadly Australia is going the same way - infected by US stupidity.
