Today, I pay my fair share of taxes and everyone leaves me the fuck alone.
This, my friend, is the definition of extortion. Pay or get fucked with.
I am all for funding social buildings, schools, hospitals, fire fighting, all of those things.
I also do not support extortion.
These are two different things. You seem to think that one must exist in order for the other to happen.
Why do you think you believe this? Possibly those schools funded by extortion taught that this is normal?
What are you a kindergartner?

Extortion is criminal and tax-funded states protect citizens against extortion.
Taxation is legal and as fair as possible by consensus in dozens of countries. In the US, it's written into the fucking constitution. The vast majority of people and their elected representatives thought it in their overwhelmingly best interest for the common welfare and defense of the state. And no, the constitution was not written by state-funded, brain-washed schoolteachers, but a bunch of fucking liberal revolutionaries. The Bitcoinists of their time, sick and tired of a centralized monarchy, unfair wealth distribution, and lack of religious freedoms. Sound familiar?
If you don't want to pay taxes, go ahead and renounce your citizenship, go live on a boat and see how long you survive without state assistance once pirates, typhoons and diseases show up.
All you ignorant, juvenile libertarian, conservative, racist alt-righter fuckers can all go proper fuck yourselves.

One party may have started the KKK but the other (yours, it seems) is overwhelmingly carrying the (tiki) torches.
Go cry Spike Lee a river, maybe he'll make you a movie of it.
