Then you should donate to free clinics and hospitals
Do not make everyone else pay taxes because you are failing to donate on your own.
Another flaw in this whole "health care" debate is that everyone is talking about health insurance. Health insurance is not health care.
I totally agree with you. April sucks, knowing how much is going to the war machine. But the truth of the matter is the main reason the government wants higher taxes is to pay the interest on the loans from China. Remember when the US borrows from China the collateral is you and I.

I try to live a conscientious life, and I feel writing that check is the only immoral thing I do. But if you don't pay all they demand, they put you in prison. So I do it, and I suppose that makes me a coward.
