Then you're an idiot. You enjoy governmental services every second that you are alive. Taxes pay for them. Be mad at the corruption, but not the taxes. Japan has a tax of about 31% and is one of the best countries to live in. Less corruption.

We were taxed to hell and back via import/export, and "dues" which are just taxes. I will repeat myself. The problem is the corruption. Not the taxes. We pay 7% to fed, yet only about 3% actually goes where it's supposed to.
