Yeah, some of us want to contribute to making America better, for helping those in need, in poverty, in trouble.
You're bitter and whining and complaining about the theft of pennies of your riches. You want all the benefits of this great country, all the first-world freebies like highways and running water and no fear of invasion, without donating a thing to the cause of society as a whole. That's selfish and lazy and self-centered.
Guess what? The Supreme Court long ago ruled that what's good for one, is good for all (being dismantled by the upper class, but that's another problem) So contribute your taxes, be happy you were fortunate enough to be born in America, and try working to make this country better, not trying actively to take away from the least among us who are not as fortunate as we.
Screw that. Move to another country. Maybe one where getting $100 a week is vast riches and you could appreciate the need.

What, specifically are you doing to make this country better?
Besides this forum of course.
