Is there a grammatical reason for people saying "I pay my taxes" instead "I pay the taxes"?

“Hey, can we give each homeless person $2000? It’ll pull 90% of them out of poverty. Then they’ll become contributors to the tax pool!”

“No, I’d rather spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on hostile architecture and hostile police. Also we pay jails to house and feed them.”

    They removed all benches from the bus stops in my town a few months ago.

    It's not like we have a homeless problem in the town. It's a smaller town on the outskirts of a bunch of larger cities. I don't think I ever seen one homeless person since I moved here decades ago.

    Thanks for making me miserable when i'm waiting for the bus, I'm sure it was worth it you absolute cunts.
