Cynthetiq I find your logic that you don't want to pay for someone else a bit hypocritical. Do you realize many of the things you have today are paid for by people other than yourself? For example, fire, police, military, roads, bridges, utility lines, ect. There are people who make a lot more money in this world that pay a whole lot more in taxes that you do and I bet many of them aren't happy about it. Are you thankful that they provide for you? Are you only willing to receive from others but not give? If you really don't want people to pay for other people we better change over to a flat tax that is much higher than you are paying now that way everyone pays equally.

And they don't (unless a San Franciscan is unlucky enough to get a speeding ticket in Seatle).
Police funding is local not federal.
