The government is not accountable to the individual taxpayer it is accountable to society as a whole. You as an individual taxpayer have no say about how the money is spent other than exercising your right to vote. Your tax contributions are not yours to manage. That money belongs to the government who is far more capable of managing that than an armchair disgruntled libertarian accountant who wants more disposable income for himself. It’s not about you or me but it’s about we.

We live in a society.
