Here’s a quote I stumbled across a couple decades ago.
I like paying taxes. With them I buy civilization.
I enjoyed Civ 5 but I never played the other ones except the OG. I trust that 2 - 4 and any ones they have released since 5 are decent as well.
I’ve played 4,5,6 and 7, and I’ve enjoyed all of those.
Here is a longer excerpt from the opinion by Holmes:1
It is true, as indicated in the last cited case, that every exaction of money for an act is a discouragement to the extent of the payment required, but that which in its immediacy is a discouragement may be part of an encouragement when seen in its organic connection with the whole. Taxes are what we pay for civilized society, including the chance to insure.

i unironically love paying my taxes (free quality (mostly) healthcare go brrrr)
I like the idea of paying taxes, I just hate that I’m paying a larger percentage of my “wealth” than someone whose net worth is several orders of magnitude more.
The other side of that is when I see someone using a service that my tax dollars are paying for I feel pretty good.
^ I also love my public libraries and schools too
and funding science research!!
not so fond of military/police spending tho
I also love supporting art and artists who produce all kinds of amazing entertainment.
OK but where did you get this photo of me
