I refuse to voluntarily pay more taxes than I have to. If they weren't taking our money and screwing us with it, it would be a different story.

+1 Even with expertly gathered statistics it can be tough to differentiate the cause from a coinciding effect. Are more cars with vanity plates vanilized because of the plates or is it that cars that are more likely to be vandilized are also more likely to have have vanity plates? If you've read Freakonomoics, it goes into some good examples of this kind of thing.
Personally, if I put myself into the mindset of a self-hating moron who'd have the lack of charactor to willfully damage someone elses property, I think I'd be more likely to go after a car with a "better than you" vanity plate than one without, but that's just a gut feel.
