CB - A vote for sanity. Good post!
BUT. I think that most people don't/won't mind paying
reasonable taxes based on a reasonable tax code where
everyone [mostly] pays their fair share (there will always
be holes and exceptions). The problem with the US tax code
as it exists today is that it panders mainly to special
interests and corporations who have the lobbying power to
influence what Congress votes on.
As such, it is now one big mess. In fact, a good analogy of
the tax code might be similar to a software program. By the
time you get to release 10, you have built layer upon layer
on top of the original program. Whatever and however
release 1.0 was built is the constraining factor that
carries through all future work. Each subsequent
modification introduces additional constraints and
limitations. At some point, the only "real" solution is to
wipe the slate clean and start over again. Hopefully,
someday, someway, somehow <g> a way will be found to force
our politicians to do just that with the existing tax code.

I'd be happy if my income taxes were lower. Like most I'd
like to take
legitimate deductions.
But, I think anyone who is unwilling to pay the taxes, ought
to move
from the US. Or, stay here but make sure you drive on no
roads, take no
medicine that even indirectly came from research supported
by the NIH,
never listen to the weather, drink only water that's not
tested by
government agencies for purity, never read any material from
the USDA
before you farm or trade corn, etc.
