The really tricky part is that both aspects of taxes are true.

The really really tricky part is when taxes are used to penalize you - for instance used to fund agencies that even actively harass you (ICE recently).

Or go to fund programs that only your political opponents benefit from.

Also, anyone living in the bay area can attest how terrible the roads are for how much tax money clearly gets spent on them.
