So where is the problem? You agreed that those who are supposed to pay are paying.
Could it be that the money collected is not being spent as well as it could be?

My tax comment was made in a completely different context. You've changed the subject. Re-read my post for what "problem" I was discussing. All the paragraphs go together.
BTW - did you read the article I referenced, or just look at the chart posted here? Read the article, too.
And no, I didn't agree that "all those who are supposed to pay are paying". Not in the least. I said, "yes", to your statement that it "...
seem like a first world country where taxes are paid by almost everyone who ought to be paying them ... ". No, I do not agree with that statement. Yes, it "seems" like that, though, on the surface, doesn't it?' It is not the reality that would reflect my interpretation of who "ought" to be paying taxes.
