Several reasons. First, the attitude of the government is a problem for me. It's as if they truly believe they have the moral authority to "allow" me to keep some of my money - whatever they don't "need".
Second, I work hard to earn what I do. I should be able to spend, save, and give as I see fit. When people keep more of their earnings, charitable giving increases, which eliminates the need for some government programs.
Third, it is proven that lowering income tax allows the economy to GROW. This means that the government has MORE income the LOWER tax rates go. I'm sure that there is some limit to this, but since we instituted the income tax, we haven't seen it.
Finally, the tax code has been made so confusing that the average taxpayer is forced to dig and search for the deductions and credits they are entitled to. While this is avoiding tax, it is preparing the return according to the law.
Look into the Fair Tax plan. Taxes based on income are BAD. Taxes you pay based on spending are not good, but better, since you have some control over them.

Do you thrive on creating and paying bills? Taxes are a pain in the ***.As if our lives aren't busy enough already.Normal bills are sent to us with an amount due.And a detailed explanation of the charges.It's a no brainer for the most part.But not taxes.No way dude.Not only do they want all of our money,or as much as they can get their hands on legally anyway,they also want US to calculate how much! So we either must calculate it ourselves,or pay someone to do it for us.So it's either time and frustration or time and money! And we still have to hold onto the same documents for almost a whole decade before they don't matter anymore! I wish the IRS would make it so we didn't have to think it up ourselves.Just revieve a bill.Pay it.Life is good.
So in conclusion.Hope that answers ur question.

Because tax's are so high and the idiots are voting to raise them even higher and 90% of tax money is funneled into programs that don't work and no one in there right mine would give money for and even when its given to education and other government facilities its goes toward some twig boy bureaucrat and not the people who need the money.

This is one of those things people all over the world agree on. Working and sweating for money you earn is not fun. Then you see governments and politicians waste the tax dollars you pay on stupidity, fighting wars, living a life style of the rich and obscene, yaddah. Here in the US we see our tax dollars spent around the world while US citizens die from lack of medical care and food. People working for the government live like fat cats while we slave every day. All we can do is hope they burn in hell.
