Doesn't this already exist? If you don't think you're being taxed enough, cut a check to the treasury.

Funny thing about this.  Almost everyone doesn't think they pay too little taxes on a personal level.  But they feel that the upper class, rich, and corporations, pay too low taxes.  A decent percentage also feel that the poor don't pay enough (over 20%):

Most people feel what they pay now is fair though.  That is the thing, no one thinks that they don't pay enough.  The thing is that paying the government isn't something done for giggles in its own right, but to do things with it.
