Really? In reality that is often the only thing successful people DO think about.
Cross sells are sold by many 'successful' people and some are ethical. The 'moral argument' is a tough one to win when you are suggesting that pre-checked cross-sells are somehow more noble than tax payments allocated to universal health care. I am in favor of honest cross sells... I'm also in favor of universal health care.

Maybe you would find it more palatable if your 1040 had a pre-checked cross sell box at the bottom allocating a few percentage points to universal health care and a hidden cancellation link on the form like the ones used by many 'successful people' to 'earn' someone else's money.
