I don't pay taxes because I don't trust the government with that much money

I recently applied for and was hired at a second job and after the initial excitement of getting the job calmed down I had a moment where I realised “my taxes are gonna be so complicated this year” and that was an adult thought I was not ready to have.

Cosplaying as a Con Head
I actually think that the IRS could be cool if they didn’t make us calculate our own taxes and showed us where our money was going but I digress

I live in the United States and I figured.. hey, I'm semi-responsible with money, I'm going to reduce my federal tax withholding on my paychecks to as close to zero as possible, calculate how much I expect to owe, save that withholding myself, and then just pay my federal income taxes at the end of the year. I'm going to pay what they've determined I owe anyway, I don't want to give them what, to me at least, amounts to a personal loan for the year when I can put that money in a savings account and earn interest on it while I wait to pay them. I don't think this is gaming the system, at most I feel like this is what we're supposed to do and we're just intentionally not properly educated on the best ways to manage our finances. So I put that withholding in a savings account every month, and by the end of the year I had accumulated almost $70 in interest dividends.
I've been preparing and paying my own income taxes for 15 years now and I just now learn this year after seeing what I owe that if you don't allow the government to withhold at least 90% of what you're expected to pay by the end of the year, you get fined for underpayment. My penalty was $126 and fuck. this. goddamn. bullshit.
