We pay a shitload in taxes in this country. I'd love to see the amount go down, and I agree that a lot of that money is wasted due to fiscal mismanagement and military buildup. I'd also like to see universal health care and higher education, along with a reasonable social safety net. These are worth spending tax money on, even though they're expensive (in the short term). I care about these more than about the specific percentage we pay in taxes. 50% for a successful, great society would be a bargain; 10% taxation for no social benefits at all is unbearable.
