Am not against tax payments, it's part of the duty and obligations that a citizen owes to his country's government.
However, you won't understand if you come from a country where the government are making you feel direct impact of your tax payments in virtually all aspect.
Coming from a country where you see how the country's treasury is being looted by corrupt politicians leaving the country to poor infrastructural facilities, am not sure you'll have the joy of paying your tax when you still pay more for quality medical care that's unaccessible to many, educational system and facilities that doesn't compete with global standard, transport systems that are just a nightmare to think of and the worst insecurity that doesn't seem to end because the government ain't giving it the required attention to it's end.
I come from a country where the government are corrupt, nepotism etc anything bad you can name it and I still live here.
I'm sure I won't joy to paying my tax regardless the government are corrupt or not, corrupt countries usually have lower tax, while non corrupt countries will change higher tax. I never feel joy if I need t spend my money for government, it's better for me to spend it to my friends/colleagues/boss in order to make a relationship and increase my opportunity to work in better position/better company.
