I wrote/mailed tax checks today...

I should be paying more…most of us should. 

There is nothing stopping you from paying more, just don't take any deductions.

“Let me tell you how it will be

There's one for you, nineteen for me….”

Inflation is a nasty form of taxation. Crickets regarding that matter…..

My wife tried to warn me that yesterday's attempt at humor would be an epic fail.  She is a wise woman.

I'll tlry to do better next time.

The more poor people out there...

The less complaints about taxation... thus... the goal.

Taxation started out at 1% of your labored income... The government greed is overwhelming nowadays... redistribution of wealth is a bad policy... but why... I refer to my first sentence...

A flat tax levels the playing field for all, no more gimmicks, you work, you pay tax, you don't work, you don't pay tax... this dictates the governments monetary policy, so naturally a flat tax is insufficient for their spending habits... fiscal responsibility does not equate to the government... as they want (need) to keep the poor people at bay, so they give them your money, to cover up their bad policies...
