This isn't taxes. It's a company selling a product/service, and they have the right to charge whatever they want. If you don't want to pay taxes then tough poop. If ou don't want to buy TTK, don't. But this is not a major issue, and you're acting like a self important diva. Get over yourself. Man up and pay the 40 or don't, but don't act like you're Martin Luther King because you think an unreleased product that you're going to play for a hundred hours isn't worth an extra $20.
