No one wants to be the idiot who supports all the free riders. You'd have to be a fool to opt to pay more taxes when other people aren't going to. Just shows there aren't a lot of fools. It doesn't really have anything to do with hypocrisy- it has everything to do with the human aversion to being a martyr, and with a lack of trust in others- and clearly, a warranted lack of trust. People are willing to suffer, but usually only if everyone else is suffering too. "Voluntary" doesn't result in everyone paying their "fair" share. Even liberals know that.
