Why pay for roads other people use or public education or the fire department? There are plenty of things you're not using right now that are good ideas.

That's not what's being discussed here at all, nor did I say I don't want to pay taxes. I said I don't see the moral good in paying more in taxes so that others can work less and avoid "menial" jobs.
