I didn't say we shouldn't pay taxes, or that there aren't benefits of having the government those taxes pay for. But nobody gets a say in the matter. And everybody should be aware of this most basic function of the government. I'm basically advocating taxpayer awareness, and government oversight. I'm not a member of the tea party and I don't want to get rid of all taxes. I feel that some friction is welcome when paying taxes, because otherwise people will be less aware they exist, and the government will have an easier time raising them.
