Tell me where I can go to not pay property taxes and gas taxes. As a conservative, I can't think of a single place where I could live in the U.S. where I can avoid either of these taxes to pay for roads and education.
Interesting. As a conservative, you want to avoid paying taxes whenever possible but you begrudgingly pay them.
That's the cost of living in this country. If you don't want to pay taxes, why not move elsewhere where there isn't a government?
Show me where I specifically stated that. Unless you're projecting something.
Right here einstein

Maybe y'all should move to some remote island without any government.
Excuse my language, but it is all a bunch of horse s%$it. As was said before they have some of the best tax teams and lawyers alive, they should be aware of these two items listed below. I'm sure that none of these clowns "wishing" they could pay more have ever visited either of these sites, let alone "done their part" to contribute.
Here is a table from the Treasury Direct site showing total donations by year back to 1996. Best case scenario is that you have one, maybe two of these holier-than-thou folks actually contributing anything.

While I am not surprised that the government would offer the option to the fools that would volunteer to contribute, I am flabbergasted that "donations" approach anywhere near those amounts.
Also you never addressed me.... just insulted and generalized.
You create a broad generalized argument that rich conservatives are bad, while leaving out the simple fact that rich conservatives and democrats commit the same frauds and pay little to nothing in taxes.
However somehow because they are democrats, they escape being mentioned?

Lets back up. You asserted that Republicans want to use schools and road without paying taxes to fund it.
I countered with tell me where I can live that I don't have to pay property taxes (education) and gas taxes (roads).
I understand that you'd like paint Republicans and conservatives as free-loaders, but using property and gas taxes to make a point doesn't really help your case considering nearly all of us pay these taxes. Of all the taxes out there, these are probably the two most unavoidable.
