Or never think it will ever happen to them so if they aren’t ever going to benefit from it, why should they pay for anybody to have it?
But I’m in this camp, why should I pay taxes if all I see is a dreadful health system, shit public education system, knowing the social security is bankrupt and will not be able to provide me with a decent retirement, and all the money going into bank bailouts and mismanaged public companies.
If all I see is the gov mismanaging the funds I give them, why am I not allowed to manage them myself?
It’s a good point, but it’s the people’s group responsibility to hold those in power accountable for their mismanagement. Voting in different government, protesting, escalating to action, eating them. Maybe in that order.
If everyone stops paying, you remove the tax and benefits system entirely, and are just left with 100% privatisation. That’s exactly what the rich and priveleged want so they can look after themselves and profit more.
The problem will always be the people not smart enough to understand it

Because you’re a person, and not the government making policy.
