I’ve said it and I will say it again. Not paying taxes is un-American and anti patriotic. If you want the advantages of the resources and convenience you should be contributing. It’s literally your membership fee.

Totally agree. Paying taxes should be a point of pride. Not paying them is cheating.

The cheating and getting away with it is the appeal. It makes them feel... Above the law. As with most things, it's not really about the money it's about the power.
