How much of every dollar that I earn should I be allowed by the government to keep for myself?
I've tried my best to figure out where I'm at now with the dozens, and dozens of taxes we pay, and the best I can figure, I'm allowed to keep about .60 cents of every dollar that I earn. So I figure I work four months out of every year to pay the government. Is that not enough?
I mean, I'm the one doing the work, and having my money taken at gunpoint to finance politicians, and their whims.
How much do you think I should be allowed to keep from my own labor?
And another question that I think is relevant.
What is the origin of my debt to foreign countries, wetbacks, deadbeats in other states, academemics, (double expletive) lobbyists, or any (double expletive) body else that I'm not mandated by the US CONSTITUTION to be in debt to? Why do I owe these people, countries, and states money? Why am I in debt to them? Please explain!!
Hell, I owe less on my mortgage than a lot of recipients of my tax dollars do on their vehicles! It won't be long before I owe nothing if I have my way, and I know the origin of that debt that I gladly pay!
Why in the (double expletive) do I owe a government of a foreign country part of my paycheck? I made no agreement, or deal with them.
And if little boogla boogla over in Africa, Pedro in Guatamala, or Habib in Iraq needs a few bucks, I'll send it to them. Why does the government get to decide that I owe Osama a bunch, take it from me, and give it to him? Why?
I work my ass off for my money for me, my family, and my community. I don't give two (expletive) about Shaniqua in Minnesota, I don't owe her baby factory self a dime! I could use that money to help someone here who actually NEEDS it!
Which brings up another question.
What is the origin of my debt to those other than my immediate family who have made crap life decisions? Why should the government steal my labor to support them? Why do I owe them?
I've worked my ass off since age 11. Had to pay rent in my mother's house at 14, and have only called in sick at work only 2 days in the last 20 years. And that was only because I was in the hospital, and my wife wouldn't let me leave.
I've worked damn hard for what little I have, and tried my best to do what's right by people, and with my money; but you want the criminal government to have more of my time, labor, and money. This (expletive ) pisses me off!
(One more expletive.!!!!!!!)
Am I nothing more than a (expletive) s***e to your beloved government?
Rant over. (Multi-expletive)
I'll ask you just as I've asked some of your l****... (

I seldom read rants such as yours. I'm glad I made an exception. My response: "AMEN".
