You can't cut any taxes or programs to fund your idea. Nothing else in your government is going to change. It can't be a tax that you avoid somehow. The money comes from you and similar people in your situation. Don't try to get around it in some way.

I would like the ability to choose (within limits) where my taxes go.

Say 60% always goes to 'general' and then you get to send the rest to health, education, military etc. as you choose.
