If my taxes don’t pave my roads or fix my bridges or keep my schools open 5 days a week or pay local teachers a living wage or help keep my hospital open or help my neighbor’s kid eat lunch or fund public television or my healthcare…

Why the f’ck should I pay taxes?

1. To stay alive & outside of tRUMP's concentration/death camps like Alligator Auschwitz
2. Pay for orange Hitler to be healthy with gourmet food & lots of exercise on his private golf resort
3. Pay for the 'snow' that Don Jr plays in
Your taxes are all going to GOP pockets

Taxes do not pay for those things. Please educate yourself on modern money supply.

Taxes play a part in controlling inflation but sovereign currency issuers need to spend into the economy first before they can recover some of it in tax. A nations funding isn't like a household budget! 😏

Sort of like no taxation without representation. If the federal government discontinues services, shouldn't we discontinue paying for them?

So right! I don't want billions of tax dollars going to reopen Alcatraz in California or opening dozens of new prisons around the country! What the heck has happened to this country?

So that Donald Trump can remain firmly attached to certain billionaires' assholes.
That's why you're paying taxes.

We pay taxes so they rich can hire thugs to kidnap the people that harvest our food and build our houses, the ones who fix the roads and cook our meals.
We pay taxes so the rich can keep their money and use it to continue to oppress the ones who are not rich.

You may want to look into some of the methods and arguements Quakers have made to avoid paying taxes (because the faith prohibits funding wars).it's a fascinating and informative rabbit hole.

Oh I’m done. I’ll escrow my taxes until what I pay for is actually occurring. Until then I’m following international law about not paying taxes to fund fascism.

Trump has already openly recanted his oath of office. The Trump GOP has torn apart the social compact a long time ago. Every American still feeling bound by it has only themselves to blame. Resistance at every step is your civic duty.

Under this regime? We shouldn't. Not only is this taxation without representation, our taxes are how we financially sponsor his autocratic regime, sponsor his hateful policies, and how we fund his secret police with their concentration camps.
