Taxes make me angry... - Page 5

Paying federal taxes makes me angry too. I would be less angry if I felt like I had more of a say in what my taxes were spent on, but mostly it just goes to wars and oil companies and other things I oppose. I continue to pay the taxes because it would be illegal not to but I sure as hell am not happy about it.

I feel better about paying local taxes because I see where those things are going and I tend to support how they are used: schools, roads, hospitals, etc.

550,000(.35)-19,500 = 173,000 = 31.4%??

Do you build every highway you drive on? Do you want to live in a world where there is no protection for your possessions outside of yourself and everyone else knew that?

I am not saying that the U.S. tax policy is good or even anything less than stupid and unfair in many ways. But taxes are a necessary part of a functioning society.
