I don’t agree with your interpretation of the word ‘burden.’ A burden doesn’t have to be useless or unfair. A burden can be carried with pride and purpose or a burden can be can be oppressive and demeaning or it can be anywhere in between.
Taxes are also purposefully unfair. Fair would be taxes distributed equally amongst those who benefit from their expenditure. Instead, the cost of supporting society is distributed based on ones ability to bear it.
