Zac Polanski (being interviewed on the BBC) said (among some other important stuff) that:
'I think it is legitimate to say paying tax is something that's actually patriotic, we should be proud of contributing to this country'!
This shift in political emphasis is vital: tax is not a 'necessary evil', its not something we should seek to avoid.. rather it is how we fund the society we want & value!
Its good to see a political leader make this vital point!
@ChrisMayLA6 of course. patriotism is loving your country. paying your fair share of taxes is funding your country, a patriotic act.
@ChrisMayLA6 How much of this though comes from lack of faith in the government. I hear "but they'll spend it on [random nonsense]" all the time as a reason to avoid tax so you can spend it yourself on things you care about (ie stuff it in the bank)
