It is so easy to spend other people's money isn't it? Please keep your hands out of my wallet. If you want to spend your own money to pay for policing the world on the other hand, of course, you are free to do so. Deal?

It's my money. I am taxed at the top of the scale.

You know that commonly cited statistic from the National Taxpayers Union that 5% of citizens pay 60% of the taxes? That's me.

I'm very likely carrying you in some fashion as we speak.

Please keep your hands out of my wallet.

LOL! As long as you keep your hands of my wallet when you retire by forgoing Social Security.

I'd rather have my taxes used to defeat our enemies abroad as opposed to my front lawn.

Certainly more than I'd like to see them used to subsidize heathcare and education bureaucracies.
