I too pay taxes that go to things that I cannot benefit from. The value of Torah learning has accompanied the Jewish people for thousands of years. Just like this community knows how to respect the needs of other communities, so too the other communities needs to respect the value of Torah learning
-- former MK of Shas, Yigal Guetta
while he is right on one side of the coin about respecting Torah learning, in what was does "this community respect the needs of others"? in my neighborhood right now there is a fight over the city building a small soccer field in a park. It was already moved once due to complaints by the Haredi community and now they are protesting the new location in a park at the edge of the neighborhood. And this happens all over in so many realms.
