> I'm happy to pay taxes and help fund this country.

Whatever you do, don't look at how your tax dollars are actually allocated. I'm afraid you may be very disappointed.

Our government is flawed, sometimes it seems hopelessly so, but any replacement is bound to be worse.

It's used for good and evil. Like everything else. I support organizations that are transparent and try to hold government agencies up to the light.

Name anything that collects money and you'll find behaviors you don't like.
