Tax Rant

[Gman]

I didn't realize that getting a pay raise would mean that I have to pay for everyone else's goddamn food stamps. Is this how the game works? Real Americans working their butts off have to pay for all the fucking leaches that are sucking our life out? Seriously, how do you guys deal with this shit? How do you feel about paying 15%+ to the federal government who just turns around and wastes your hard-earned money?

I had to come up with $8K 2 years ago, $7K last year, removed all of my deductions and still have to come up with over $3K this year. 15% I wish...

We're not "wealthy", but make too much according to the IRS to deduct losses from a rental property.

I sure feel like I'm on a canoe ride and I can hear Dueling Banjos...

To think that the nation fought a revolutionary war over a 2% tax.... My, how times have changed.
