On the other hand, if you feel so strongly that government provides too much, why don't you offer to take on some of the burden yourself? Pay for the paving and maintenance of your street and relieve the city of Seattle of the burden, allowing them to reduce their overall need to soak the taxpayers?

I am not necessarily complaining about local taxes. The benefit there is more tangible and there is more of an oportuntity to address local government on issues. I am talking about the Feds.
