Public Safety generally functions well. This cannot be said for other functions of the government, like public schools. I don't use public schools, and there is little interest in education in the system. Perpetuation and indoctrination is the aim of government schools. Constitutional requirements and limitations should drive taxes. Any other services should be user-pays. If you drive a vehicle you pay tax/ tags now. If you have a child it should be your responsibility to pay for the education. Lastly, people should not be taxed for their production. Consumption should be taxed. Currently we have both and that is why we have bloated gov and entitlements.</blockquote>
