" What bothers me are not the taxes I pay to help others and to support the services our country needs. What bothers me is the mis-allocation and inefficient distribution of our tax money."

But that's the price everyone pays for a democratic country. If there were enough people pissed off about the misallocation of taxes, then vote the bastards out.
