Stop making assumptions about me please. RAZD asked you the same.

You seem to be trying to make a case that some things cost a lot and that therefore people shouldn't pay taxes. The cost of housing here is very high too. I've been doing my family's finances for years and I'm quite aware of what things cost thanks.

The fact remains, however, that anyone who needs medical treatment here gets it. We know that many medications are useless and that doctors need to be trained in prevention and holistic medicine. But at the moment we're not living in an ideal world. Most people aren't aware of how to use diet and supplements to help themselves; and if we try to tell them, very few will listen. Do we just say to hell with it, because they're ignorant? Until society is more accepting of the real way to health, we may draw certain lines, but we can't abandon sick people altogether.

You don't have to worry about insurance at all here, what it will or won't pay for. In the past when I was looking for answers to various conditions from the allopathic system, I never paid a penny to see consultants, get scans, etc. I never have to pay to see my doctor. He is still sometimes useful.

If we all stopped paying taxes, there would be no money for police, firefighters, the roads we drive on, the schools we send our children to, and those hospitals which do occasionally save lives. I don't believe I have the right to waive my responsibility to help with those things just because I want to keep more of my own money.

If a society is to exist at all, then people need to feel a sense of belonging and they need to work together to help it function.
