>NY Times Op-Ed Writer’s Muddled Logic: Money Not Paid in Taxes a Gift from Government

My remaining paycheck, after taxes, is a gift from the government?
LOL - Just wow.

If the gov embraces that idea, then it certainly is time for a Second Civil War... and people should consider paying the tax man in copper and lead.

That mentality is based on the premise that all money belongs to government; therefore, any $ we’re allowed to have is a gift.

All undertaxed millionaires and billionaires (like Gates, Buffet, Clinton, etc.) need only write the gov’t a check for the amount they think they should be paying. How much simpler and less expensive than changing the tax code! Funny that you never hear about this happening......
