paying the small amount you do, of course you're happy with it.

why exactly should someone pay 100 times more than you to receive the exact same services again?

and why doesn't the same thing apply to food, gas, houses, etc?

because the government has convinced you that its ok to take more from the successful because the smarter, better, more able owe it to you?
