When I go to work and get paid, the government confiscates a portion of my earnings as income tax. I use the word confiscate because there is no choice involved.
If I choose to spend some of the money I have left after income taxes, I must pay a percentage as sales tax on goods and services that are more expensive because the provider of those goods and services also has a portion of the money they earned providing the goods and services confiscated as taxes.
If I choose to save or invest some of the money I have left after income taxes, I must also pay taxes on the return on my investment. Never mind the fact that taxes were collected on that money when I earned it the first time.

Conclusion: I don't pay my fair share and need to pay more taxes.
