When governments at different levels take half your wealth taxes are high, it doesn't matter what the benefits are.

No one is talking about taking half one's wealth.

And many of the benefits of living in this country are not from the government. Too big of government just reduces those benefits, it doesn't increase them.

This is the best country in the world in which to live if you are rich. You don't have to live behind gated walls and the gov't doesn't take the greater percentage of your income. The rich need to be grateful and stop trying to get out of paying their taxes.
