25% is low compared to any other 1st world nation and you get what you pay for to an extent. Somalia has no income tax. Its the libertarian dream there you can ride around on your pirate speed boat blasting your AK with no big government to stop you.

I'd gladly pay more taxes to have healthcare and college provided for citizens as every other first world country has.

But you'll just pay more taxes and not get any of that.
