They say taxation without representation is no good. It sure seems taxation WITH representation ain't any better.

You are forgetting that we still don't have "representation". Oh, you think we have a "Congress"? Well, just look at where I come from. I don't think "Chuck" Schumer and "Hillary" are representing me - but I got outvoted. Majority rules, they say. Too bad - because the "have nots" always will outnumber the "haves". It's a great system - if you are a politician cultivating the "have nots".
