My parents spotted this years ago, and moved out and never looked back. I fully agree with them. I have to watch my family in the US lead a life I can only dream of. My younger brother earns less than me but lives like a king compared to me. I know where my bread is buttered.
Sorry but words fail me with you, especially on this particular line "taxes are too suffocating"

Yet when an old woman takes a stand against the oppressive tax regime here, you slap her down.

This is exactly what makes me wonder why anyone should want to live in the UK.
