Taxes take money from some people and give it to other
people. That seems like a pretty good starting point - except
it leads to the inescapable conclusion that you don't like
to pay *any* taxes. Further that you claim that our governments
(state and federal, I would guess) should not be doing that.

Once again I would say you are doomed to disapointment, living
in the US. To get what you want, you need to move someplace
else.

Jim,

You're jumping to unwarranted conclusions. I've already given you credit
for enough intelligence to sort things out. I really hate to be mistaken.

Of course we need taxes for essential services. Military, judiciary, law
enforcement, transportation system, to name a few. What we don't need is
the socialist programs liberals are so fond of.
