Exclamation it's a friggan JOKE

take that much money from each of us
and then squander it for useless reasons
and then pretend like we had a say the whole thing

sounds like a rip off to me...

Just the other day I was trying to tell my 15 year old daughter what taxes are.......Guess what she said to me after what I told her?

She said dad, everyone came to America for a better life, It looks like in the future we may be leaving to find a better way to live!

She may have something !

A terribly flawed system. Whenever you can put yourself in a position to pay less you create an incentive to cheat the system. I am for the "fair tax"...basically a national sales tax and no tax on income, no deductions, no cap gains and revenue neutral. No one could avoid paying tax by positioning themselves in such a away as to find a loophole or advantage. As soon as you spend, you pay. It also encourages saving which I think more people whould be better off if they did.
