If given a choice, would you rather pay high tax and enjoy substantial amount of school,healthcare or low tax and have expensive healthcare system?

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on taxes and social welfare benefits

High tax and good health care, welfare benefits. Because not everyone knows how to put their money to better use, so citizens are sort of 'paying' for these better benefits

I would go for high taxes and low cost of welfare (healthcare, school, etc.) considering the progressive tax structure in Singapore and that the rise of medical inflation can be quite scary over the long run.

I would choose low tax and expensive health care system. I prefer to have option to have my own plan...
