I’m sorry you feel that way. In my opinion the BILLIONS OF DOLLARS THIS GOV’T WASTES will continue when half the people are not paying for it...they ignore it.
Let me give you a simple example. If I give you two tickets to the ballgame this Saturday night for free and you don’t go, are you upset? Do you feel you wasted money? Not really. You might be upset you didn’t have a chance to go, but at the end of the day you didn’t pay for it so no big deal.
Now, same example, but this time you bought tickets for the ball game but you can’t go. Now, are you upset? Do you feel you wasted something? Of course, because you have some skin in the game and spent some money. YOU ACTUALLY FEEL IT.
That was my point. I’m sick of liberals saying that paying taxes is Patriotic. Well, if that’s the case, they should want EVERYONE to feel patriotic, even if it is a token amount. EVERYONE. EVERYONE should have some skin in the game.
The problem is that we have too few taxpayers and those of us that are paying, are paying too much.
I’m not a liberal troll in any sense of the words. I’m neither liberal or a troll, but I do believe too many Americans are getting a handout and need to understand the waste and fraud going on. If they pay income taxes they will get that message loud and clear and put pressure on their gov’t to stop wasting their money.
It’s a kind of reverse of the “Untouchables”-—what Obamanomics is creating, by design or default, given their hundred-years-away Utopia, is a growing class of The Entitled
who are in their own way “Untouchables”, as in “Stay away from them, you can’t touch them, you can’t criticize them, or you’re a racist”.
