MM, I have to take issue with your repeated use of the phrase "at the point of a gun".  While you probably don't mean that literally, the reason we have to pay is that the officials we elected enacted those laws and created those agencies that require us to dig into our pockets and "render unto Caesar".  The election of Donald Trump is a prime example of the voters saying "enough is enough" at the ballot box and by electing him we are beginning to see the tax burden lessen.  Until enough voters kick the big spenders out of Congress we will continue to be required to ante up.

 I agree with the concept of the T.E.A. Party but unfortunately it got branded - to the glee of the left wing big spenders - as a bunch of crazies and kooks.  The testimony of Becky Garritsen (sp?) before Congress tells it all.  This lady from little bitty Wetumpka, Alabama provided a moving description of how the government turned from being a servant of the people to the people's master, and in so doing we can no longer recognize today's America as the country we grew to love in our early years.
