[CK86]

Taxation is necessary with proper oversight and checks and balances. I just wish they'd go down instead of always going up.

And thast the point I was making. The structure of the system is what is wrong and not the idea of taxes. Taxes are lessened on the wrong people (wealthy/poor) while the are raised on the wrong people (middle/upper-middle class).
