No. I don't mind paying into a system that's beneficial to society as a whole. I didn't want the US to be poor, unhealthy, stuck, and stupid. Sorry you failed Civics, "idiot detector".

But would you mind paying more than necessary?
Would you mind paying for counterproductive or even destructive programs?
Would you mind if the tax burden was so onerous that it reduced employment and living standards?
There's more nuance to this than "MOAR money better!"

"Counterproductive or destructive programs" is the lion's share of our current budget.
Look. This isn't about me. If you can't Google how the rest of the civilized world works, don't exect me to spell it out for you, "idiot detector".

The rest of the civilized world is substantially poorer than Americans.
I guess you haven't travelled much.
