Can someone tell me why americans FEAR the word tax. I'm really curious because I pay about 65% of my income in taxes and yet. I don't feel burdened or scared.

@emperordecanada

Gee, are you happy paying 65%? Why don't you just pay more! Nobody is stopping you! After all, how much is too much?

So, you know what's scary? The raising of taxes and finding new ways of taking your deserved hard income never stops, does it?

I sure wish they would quit shoving shit down our throats after you get your public option that means the public pays for all heath care Then we all will have to pay for carbon taxes next after that yep we will pretty well be total slaves to the Government I cant understand how people cant see what s happening. They just sold out our grand kids with bank bail outs now people are begging for them to give the insurance company all the rest of us Man Russia is looking better and better
