Our country's founders had harsh words on government funding:

"What at first was plunder assumed the softer name of revenue." (Thomas Paine)

"I cannot lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents." (James Madison)

"It would be a hard government that should tax its people one-tenth part of their income." (Ben Franklin)
