Some thoughts on taxation:

"Taxes are not levied for the benefit of the taxed."
– Robert Heinlein

"There are two methods, or means, and only two, whereby man's needs and desires can be satisfied. One is the production and exchange of wealth; this is the economic means. The other is the uncompensated appropriation of wealth produced by others; this is the political means."
– Albert Jay Nock

The income tax is “a vicious, inequitable, unpopular, impolitic and socialistic act … The crusade for an income tax is the most unreasoning and un-American movement in the politics of the last quarter-century.”
Editorial – New York Times. 1894.

"It’s April 15th. That day is important for just about one-half of Americans; the one-half that actually carries the load for all of us. For the remaining one-half of income earners it’s either just another day, or it’s a day they revel in their ability to not only avoid paying taxes themselves, but in their ability to loot the pockets of those who do through such gimmicks as the rancid Earned Income Tax Credit."
-Neal Boortz

I like the one from the New York Times. I bet that editor is rolling over in his grave right now.

Those damn criminals who loot our pockets with horrible things like the EIC....You've got to be kidding me? Here's an example of how the EIC works (for you non-rich peeps): link

As you see, this couple and their two kids have a total family income of a whopping $25,000. Their EIC is $1,917.

How Neal Boortz can claim that this is what tax-evasion is about is beyond me.
