Which is exactly what I said I did as well. As do all of us who pay taxes.
What is the amount that we pay in local, federal, property, sales, and gasoline tax? Is it something like 40 cents or more on every dollar?
I think that is way more than enough to be taken from us. (we didn't just graciously hand it over to these bureaucrats).
And I'm okay with that to a point.
We need to have govt. and civil society and all that entails.
I just feel like we went past the point of what govt. is supposed to be doing and now we are at a point where if a person works hard and is a bit smarter than the next guy...they end up getting financially punished while the people who either aren't capable or just don't want to work hard...are getting rewarded. (and I'm not talking about the mega-rich...they always get rewarded, I'm talking about people like me and you who work hard and make a good living)
There is no way in hell that is going to have a good ending.
