Sounds to me like you are overtaxed. Maybe if the rich folks paid more, you could pay less. parsy.

I'm already in the "rich" bracket according to the government. So, no, the rich don't need to be taxed more, the government needs to SPEND LESS. This isn't an "I've got mine" rant, this is a get a better job rant. There are very few good reasons my money should be stolen from me to be given to someone who didn't earn it. If I want to give money to someone I feel needs it, that's MY prerogative, and I am certain I can decide that better than a government office.

I paid attention in school, I got a skill via the military and I'm now reaping the benefits of having done both. If I can do it so can others. If you made damaging life choices that prevent you from climbing higher, just remember it was YOU who made the choice, not me or any other taxpayer and we are NOT here to fix your screw ups unless we CHOOSE to. < /rant >
