"I hate that government that concocts ways to steal money from me

...

I do my helping by my choice through my church"

Now what did Jesus say on the topic of taxation...? Oh, that's it: "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's." IE pay up and shut up.

@Steve

"Those in favour [of low income taxation] will say that it encourages savings and self-reliance and respects individual choice, which is good for the nation as a whole. Detractors will point out that it reinforces inequalities."

Detractors will also point out the massive personal debt hole.
