It wasn't the fact that you were paying an income tax that you disliked [[I'm sure you pay your state and federal income taxes without a problem), but the fact that you weren't getting your money's worth for the income tax you paid that you disliked, which is understandable.
I would feel jipped too if I had to pay an income tax to live or work in a place where blight, disvestment and crumbling infrastructure is the rule.
That said, the solution shouldn't be to eliminate one of Detroit's only means of generating revenue without another revenue stream in place. Instead, the solution should be to work towards giving people their money's worth for the income tax they're paying.
