What’s this “what right do I have” remarks? My money gets taken just like everybody elses to support the government that allows you to have a job and or have the business.

They have every right to charge whatever they want to make their structure survive and if you don’t like it you’re free to go elsewhere.

What right do they have to have influence over the government using their finances when I do not have the same option?

What right do they have to have certain taxes that are based off % of income/wealth for the rest capped at a certain point in time so they pay a smaller %? IE social security iirc.

What right do they have to spend a small fortune on lawyers to figure out loopholes to avoid paying as many taxes as possible while the rest of us just pay it?
