If you don't mind my saying so, or even if you do, "my" share, and everybody else's share, is simply TOO BIG nearly everywhere in the United States. Calling some people, or most people, "tax haters" dodges the issue of massive gov't waste, misallocation of capital and resources, and malinvestment. Paying one's "fair share" doesn't mean paying until one bleeds or otherwise goes kaput. Supporting a massive, inefficient, bloated gov't machine and the bloated entitlements and retirement packages at ALL costs is for the same people who supported USSR as it went kaput. The perceived safety of living under the paternalistic, benevolent gov't was an illusion that led to poverty and a collapsed economy.
