People without cars could complain about paying taxes that go for construction of roads. People who own homes could complain about paying taxes that fund subsidized rent-control housing.
There is nobody who uses every service and program provided by the government. The way it works is that we all pay into the system, and then our elected leaders decide how to best spend the money to the greatest benefit of the majority of the population -- or at least they are suppose to.
Instead we have a corrupt system that needs some changing. But the part that needs changing is not this. The only "fair" system would be complete anarchy and a system where no taxes are taken from anyone, and everyone provides for themsleves -- survival of the fitest. Otherwise, there are always going to be people that are unhappy about the way the money is spent. I doubt there is a single person or politician in our entire country who would agree 100% with the way our government spends the money, no matter how they spent it.
