Can we please grow up and stop with the disgusting, childish nonsense that paying taxes is something that’s good for the country or helps people in any way?

On a relative scale the USA isn't too, too bad. Life could be worse. I could be living in the Gaza strip or something. Guy, what country you in ?
It's the government had a NOSTR account that provided quality content then they could just get zaps, but NOOOO! They want to extract it from your earnings and get it before you do.
This isn’t a comparison concept though. Of course it could be worse. Same as there is mild, treatable cancer, and then aggressive, stage 4 bone marrow cancer. But I’m just asking that we stop pretending that feeding the cancer, regardless of how mild, is somehow an act of moral righteousness and that if it weren’t for the stupid liver and we could charge it a 40% tax to feed the cancer more, THEN all our problems would be solved. The liver needs to pay its “fair share.”
The higher up you are to the money spigot the less taxes seem to bother you because you are part of the machination extraction team. Also Living in the Gaza strip is a direct result of Fiat currency printing and extraction where you work within a system that does not allow you to accumulate wealth because the greater good of central banking, Marxism disguised as democracy and Fiat loans incentivize the steering committee to destroy the little people who get in the way of pRoGrEsS.

The “consent of the governed” is something that makes me scratch my head as well.

This whole IRS thing is so troubling to me. If the dollar was a good investment and not constantly losing value, then taxes would be fine to pay for those needed things they are supposed to provide, but the dollar is losing value constantly. We try to find any life raft we can find to try to save for the future. Before bitcoin there was the stock market, real estate, gold, etc. Regardless what thing you tried to park your savings into, as the dollar decreases in value it makes it look like those assets are increasing in value, so they can then tax you on those gains even though in reality, those things may not be actually growing. They may be holding their value or maybe even losing value at a lesser rate than the dollar, but we have to pay taxes on those supposed gains. It's such a farce. At least bitcoin allows us to save for the future in a way that makes it very difficult for them to confiscate if we use cold storage. Now, the IRS comes out with this new set of rules. What a joke! I hope the Trump administration reins these agencies in. They are truly out of control. Nuff said.
My taxation rate is 41% last year. Not included consumption taxes. Without my contribution, how would the expensive lawyers, rich politicians and greedy army generals build the roads? Or something...

how the country will run if no taxes are paid? or the capital is enuf to run the business and no tax required.?
Yes, we in the US have a great way of life and we kindle all kinds of nonsense to go on elsewhere in order to perpetuate misery so that we can continue to relish in our achievements of greatness. I love our country. I also love our world. The sooner we destroy the hegemony of Fiat currency the better we can live and by live I mean without vaccine mandates, banking rug pulls, gender diaspora, and dumbing down of our children. How quickly people forget that the United States is also a place where the maniacs strive to destroy good people. The periphery is just showing what happens when civilization gets cocky.

Hopefully most countries can be nimble enough to frontrun the USA.
