Amen! Alternative to not paying taxes is not making enough money. Again and again, the people with the most money always seem to want more.

It's no surprise that video poker players wish the taxes to run things were from somebody else. EVERYBODY wants others to pay the tax burden. And vices are taxed more heavily than non-vices. And most of the population considers gambling a vice.
If you don't smoke, it's okay that smokers pay more. If you don't drink, it's . . . etc.
Nobody thinks the government is run efficiently, but the money has to come from somewhere.
Even the people on this site mostly believe that if somebody makes their living gambling and is successful, that person should pay taxes like other people do in this country. The people here tend to define it so THEY don't have to pay --- perhaps "recreational gamblers" shouldn't have to pay --- or some such.
Overall, I don't like paying taxes on gambling wins, but I do pay them and I'm very happy to live in the US.
