      What is CBPP? if its government its not trustworthy. Even then, defense showing as 20% means that 20% of my money is going to kill people who have never harmed me. So can I just refuse to pay 20% of my taxes? No, I can’t. Because if I did, I would be thrown in a cage and made to sleep with the lights on 24/7.

        Looking forward to you telling me they have no credibility.

        And no, you don’t get to choose where your taxes go to. In any country. Ever.

        And yet you were still incorrect on both points.

        Sorry, most people are fine paying taxes.
