Yes, I do think it is a good thing to pay taxes, especially if it is spent on public utilities. How would roads be built and maintained without tax incomes?

Good points :) I don't have answers... Just thoughts. Roads: Not sure if it was ever fair to pay for road infrastructure through income tax since it's effectively subsidizing car use and perhaps the destruction of alternative transportation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_streetcar_conspiracy I half agree with the idea of some public utilities being supported via tax, but even with hospitals or schools I see a problem: Who decides what a schools teaches? Isn't it dangerous for those in political power to fund the 'education' system? And where is the incentive to look seriously at modern dis-ease (disease) when the symptoms of dis-ease (disease) are treated by government-funded 'doctors' to maintain an existing flawed society? Of course, I see this is a very complex problem. I'm not against tax, I'm just against everything that we call 'tax' today. Thanks again for reading :) And for provoking some interesting thoughts.

When people get taught, regardless about which topic, it stimulates them to start thinking for themselves. The more you think, the more you train yourself to form opinions on any type of subject. To think out of the box.
