Because tax dollars are collected from EVERYONE, and they're collected at gun point. People who do not wish to have their money wasted on an illegal uncosntitutional government propaganda network are denied their freedom to decline association by the fact that the payment is extracted via taxation, not solicitation.
Why can't you write your own check? That way the Americans won't be imposed upon by an intrusive government bent on destroying their liberty.
Okay. And that works for dealing with NPR. But what about all the tax dollars that I don't believe in that goes to fund the "war on drugs" that puts teenage pot smokers in jail where they are exposed and damn near forced into gang activity or to pay for no-bid contracts that legislators grant to government contractors who give them the largest campaign donation?
I mean if you're against taxpayer money going to things we don't believe in, then let's apply it to all the things that we don't believe in.
