I guarantee you, if you take one of those people who are not paying
any income tax now and show them what their Canadian tax bill would be
(the templates are on the web if you want to try it)
those people would rather keep their extra $15-20,000 and buy
insurance on the open market. Kids being who they are, they would
probably buy a car and just hope they never have to go to the doctor
tho.

Your "guarantee" wouldn't be worth the paper it's written on.
No logic there.
Those not paying taxes now couldn't come up with $15-20k.
That's why they call it "socialist" health care.
Besides, all these so-called "socialist" countries with universal health
care are democracies last I knew.
They can vote in politicians who would pass law to mimic the U.S.
atrocity health system.
Ever wonder why that doesn't happen?

If you had to write a check to the IRS, state, and local government each
year to pay your taxes you would think a little differently.

Especially when you have to write that check to social security and
medicare, 7.5% of each dollar you earn gone.

Uh, I always considered that a simple budgeting matter.
Taxes are the dues for living in the society you choose to live in.
I like it here.

Have you ever wondered why the government invented withholding taxes
from your paycheck?

So you wouldn't cheat, you would provide constant revenue intead of once
a year revenue, you wouldn't feel the sting at tax time, and you
wouldn't have the excuse that you already spent the tax money on women,
booze and boats are tapped out right now.
Are you serious?
I never had a problem with any of that when I did quarterlies.
Simple budgeting matter.
But what's this to do with the citizens of "socialist" countries having

The issues is that the government requires too much money from the
citizens. If the citizens really knew how much of their money was being
confiscated from them each year they surely would think twice about who
the voted into office and who they re-elected.

From me personally I could use the tax money I am forced to pay to
purchase a luxury vehicle in the MB category for cash each year.
