I hate taxes because US tax code is pretty slanted against income earners. It just doesn't feel great to take home proportionally less and less as you work harder. We don't treat corporations or capital holders the same way, and that makes me bitter.

100% agree. Taking a paycheck is the worst way to make money in America. That said, it makes me even more sympathetic to the post you replied to. Basically no one working a 9-5 is making enough to owe the IRS $48 million, including this guy. If you make $240 million, pay your damn tax and be happy.
I never said you should love taxes.

I'm talking about people who are unreasonably obsessed with paying tax.
