The problem is that as soon as they increase your taxes to pay for something that you want to pay for, they will take that money and use it for something else.
That's not a problem but a feature of government. Otherwise the government will just focus on dirt roads and horses. Don't like taxes? Move to Somalia.
You’re saying it good when the gov’t raises taxes to pay for outreach to the homeless, but then spends the money on something else, like a new stadium?
