You live in the most expensive real-estate in the country and complain that it costs money to maintain.
Pay your fair share.
- infecto 7y agoYou must not understand me well. My complaint is that I pay some of the highest taxes in the country for some of the lowest benefits. Not sure what this has to do with me paying my fair share?
- searine 7y ago>My complaint is that I pay some of the highest taxes in the country for some of the lowest benefits. And my argument is that you are undervaluing the cost of the benefits it provides. Particularly in a cosmopolitan city, there are layers upon layers of infrastructure and society which need to be supported. Here you are standing on top of it all complaining about the breeze. Paying your fair share is recognizing that you are in a position of privilege and giving back those who allow you to be there. The system depends on people like you to strengthen the ladder you used to climb up in life, not pull it up behind you.
