Who specifically the taxes are going to and how large the tax is are only partially related. Except that it does have meaning to them. High Rock is a part of the Empire, which means it pays what the Empire pays for. Why isn't Cyrodiil paying for it? Simple enough: They're still repairing after the war, which, by the way, High Rock was not a battle ground in. Skyrim is already paying the price by hosting the Civil War.

Ultimately: High Rock isn't going to just randomly hate the Empire. It has the gold, and since it's part of the conglomerate, the Empire has every right to pay with "their own" money.

Honestly, I don't know why we're arguing about that, since it's clearly off topic.
