Some people HATE paying taxes.

Conservatives and Libertarians love to claim that paying taxes is like being robbed. Such a position extolls a hatred for the US and an ignorance of all that the government provides us with every day. Nowhere in this world has there ever been a successful economy without a strong, taxing government behind it. The financial system of this part of the world (it wouldn't be called the United States of America without the government), even our monetary system, would collapse in an instant were we to abolish the government. Once again, positions that decry supporting the government simply point out how simple-minded are the proponents of such policies. If any of them were to grow a new brain cell today, it would be lonesome.
