<<each person in the USA currently owes over 20k.>>

Rather than continuing to pay more than 35% in taxes each year, I'd sure sign up for a one shot chance to pay it off! Merely an observation on an improbable scenario.<g> Even if that occurred, taxes would probably remain high simply because it is the taxing authority that gives Congressmen and women power and helps to keep them in office. The tax structure is a vehicle of social architecture in many respects.
