I did a calculation on my income and came up with the fact I pay 4 times the median income tax.

Since I have no kids, I put less than 1/2 the strain in the infrastructure. Which means it would take 8 family wage earners to make up for my tax base.

There are a lot of things in American society jiggered for kids. That is OK -- I support a society that supports kids and families.

What is NOT OK is to come along and tell those of us who are doing the heaviest lifting that we are somehow doing "less that our part."

Whatever it is that makes people say "I want n children," I just ain't got. It like describing color to someone blind from birth.

You can say that again. The childfree missed out on the majority of the tax relief, but you better believe if they ever have to RAISE taxes, they'll be grabbing for our paychecks first.
