New York City may be known as the bagel capital of the world, but its inhabitants are subject to a "bagel tax" whenever they choose to buy a pre-sliced bagel with cream cheese.
"When people avoid paying taxes, it reduces the revenue that governments have to spend on public goods and services like education, healthcare, and infrastructure. This, in turn, can lead to a decline in the quality of these goods and services, which can harm the overall economy."
I have yet to see any evidence that *increased* government spending on those has noticeably increased their quality.
