Paying taxes on income isn't patriotic, it isn't legal, and it's not ethical. It is slavery, it's coercion, and it's extortion.

We don't owe any portion of our income to the government, and people don't pay taxes because they think it's a good idea, or because they like the things the government spends that stolen money on. They do it because if they don't, men with guns will come and lock them up. It's no different than the Mafia asking for protection money. Neither of them have a legitimate claim on the money, but they use force or the threat of force against their victims to demand money.

The IRS even says that paying income taxes is voluntary.
