And THAT is the "crux" of the problem.. Entirely TOO MANY people who don't care just how much of their hard earned money is vacuumed out of their pockets!

Each time the cost of something goes up (like taxes) and the income stays the same you lose...

You lose BUYING POWER, your money buys LESS, you get less VALUE out of your time and time IS MONEY.

You cannot "redistribute" wealth via taxes from those who have jobs or income to those WITHOUT jobs or income without the entire house of cards eventually collapsing when the cost of living goes up faster than the income..

In short ALL BECOME "POOR" with the exception of those who WROTE THE LAWS OF THE TAXES!

Where's the "like" button? You hit the nail squarely on the head.
