Do you try to find exemptions when you fill out your taxes?
My dear newly graduated and happily employed granddaughter called to say that she had to work three days of three weekends this month and that she would be paid time and a half and that she would have to pay 25% to the government. I said ...are you bragging or complaining? Be grateful that you have a job and that you can pay taxes. However.... she is beginning to shift over a bit in her philosophy.
At least the CEOs are employed and heavens they may have worked a lot and made a lot of sacrifices to get to that position. Nothing...NOTHING is either completely right or wrong.
But if you are lazy you are lazy.
