Taxes on wages earned
State tax
Federal Tax
Taxes on food
Yearly income tax
Taxes on all vehicles
Taxes on houses
Taxes on utility bills
Taxes on all Goods
Taxes on gas
And all of it being pizzed away in Martha Vinyard mansions and the salvation for all countries of the world.
Isn’t this is why we went to war with the British?

This isn’t a tax or debt problem. This is a pay problem created by govt controlled student loans. Get the govt out of student loans and the costs of higher Ed will adjust accordingly. 90% of professors are grossly overpaid.

taxes that are then used to help the people who paid them.
Unlike in the US where taxes are used to help corporations who pay little to no taxes.
But keep on when the semantics ######## while the rest of the world enjoys benefits from their taxes while ours are used to blow up brown kids half way around the world. While the rest of the world laughs at us.

1. Have you seen the roads
2. Fire and EMS that will still pay for after the $800 trip to the emergency room
3. the same law enforcement that citizens have trust issues with?
4. Military personnel that is being told to get food stamps, receive #### poor medical care from VA hospitals
5. Education systems that are indoctrinating kids into believing they can be a male or female OR a furby if they do choose (without parents consent)
Don’t start on school security fella!
6. You mean criminals that we still have to pay taxes on to maintain way after the courts have settled?
7. I’ve never flown a day in my life. If you fly YOU need to pay taxes on it.
8. You mean the fire and mechanical codes that have been paid for since the day I bought my house?
9. Safe food supply ? An FDA regulated food supply that has Heart disease is number 1 killer in the country lead by controlled Oxocodine, phentynol from YOUR SAFE big pharma companies?
Try again Tropical, I could go on.

is the goal. The tactics to achieve that goal are hard given different interests, demographics and politics. Defunding the police is a bad idea. Defunding other government services is also a bad idea. Taxes equal government funding.
No one likes taxes but everyone likes the services that government provides. In between posts, I took my trash to the side of the road and then brought the can back to the house. I’m wondering when the City will come by with the truck to vacuum up the piles of leaves. A few weeks back there was a notice on that the City was assessing and analyzing storm water, wastewater and drinking water infrastructure for future upgrades. Speculating that City, County, State and maybe Federal government will have to work together to deliver these upgrades.

So you are saying we are being taxed with sufficient representation that we pay for? For the middle class?
I don’t. America was made by people who left Britain for the same reason.
As for your love it or leave it comment, this is exactly what is wrong. You feel that YOU are adequately supported. Look at the ratings on how many AMERICANS feel that we are adequately represented and how many people trust our government to be doing a good job. You’d be in the minority fine sir!

What was the inflation rate under Trump again? Gas prices? Food cost?

Do you have a clue as to how much 1 billion dollars could do here in America? Get a clue man!

That was a stretch. Anyway, no I am good paying taxes, but of course we all know that so much is wasted or used in ways that most Americans would not support. The war in Iraq that happens comes to mind. Nation building in Afghanistan comes to mind.
