And your point! We are miserable (government wise) compared to other countries who pay high taxes and live WAY BETTER LIVES, because their taxes pay for them to live much better lives. Here our taxes go for the govt.

yes, and on top of all those taxes a 6% sales tax, plus several towns like Plymouth apply a 7% tan on everything (on top of the 6%). MA is ridiculous.
