Yeah but still you are glad to use the infrastructure (roads, public transportation,...), healthcare, climate change prevention and many more.
As I said sure there are a bunch of taxes that are to high or not really necessary but many of them serve a purpose and you will get something back in return.
So if a crime is committed - but you benefit - it's acceptable..?
Intellectually - and morally- dishonest.
since all benefit you can't call it a crime. But yeah if some people are narcissistic enough to not see the bigger picture it is more than fair to force them to pay it. As I preciously said I'm not ok with all the taxes but I just do not get those people saying they do not wanna pay a single tax but still using the infrastructure, are happy to go to hospitals, ...
Communism is totalitarian.
If a crime (theft) is of benefit to all, it is then no longer a crime...?
This doesn't make it morally defensible. Or philosophically correct.
The big picture.
All these people don't see the benefit...Only made possible through taxes.
$20 (officially) of every $100 of taxes levied is spent on the war machine.
