34. Why should anyone have to pay for anything, then?
And, to come clean, I'm an anarchist, and I don't like taxes. But, if we could have a line-item veto on the taxes we didn't want to pay, for me, there'd be a whole lot of weapons manufacturers out of work, and I bet, if you take the wingnuts into account, a whole lot of social services would dry up. I don't see why supporting stay-at-home parents is any more a poor use of dollars than paying for food stamps, a horde of inefficient government agencies, pet pork, the military industrial complex, or anything else.
