You get roads, public schools, parks, and libraries.

But I pay for all of that with property, gas, and sales taxes. None of it is free.

It's free for the people who don't pay taxes.

Who doesn't pay sales taxes? Who doesn't eat property taxes, either directly or indirectly? Who doesn't eat gas taxes?
