A Bitter April 15th
Tuesday, April 15, 2008 Flat Tax Why wont this stupid government pass a flat tax and be done with it? Let me pay what I owe once. Don't tax me every time I touch my own bloody money. Nothing angers me more than when I have to pay a second tax and third tax, after an income tax, on money I had in savings. Why is this okay? Why is this even permissible? I don't expect much in the way of the electorate demanding simplicity, but couldn't a brave, and hopefully intelligent, politician see the way? Couldn't one of these elected geniuses offer some kind of two-track tax plan? There should be one for tax payers who love paperwork, and a one-time, once per year tax only on income. And that's it!! Why must there be thousands of pages just to pay taxes? Is the purpose of these byzantine tax laws to ensure a domestic works program for financial planners, accountants, lawyers and their ilk? A flat tax would certainly reduce the demand for these "professionals." A better course of action would be to pass the flat tax, then have all these accountants auditing government spending on entitlements, domestic programs and defense. Bitterness Forget about the opiate of the masses, excessive taxation is legalized slavery. If the government has its citizens in debt to pay taxes, there is no moral difference. It is indentured servitude. Just what do my taxes pay for? Here's an example: a "stimulus" check, where the same money we sent, is returned to the taxpayers. How about not confiscating so much in the first place? If you want to talk about a bitter citizen, then I am your woman. I haven't embraced guns yet, but I'm almost there. 'Cause right now all there is to cling to is God. Labels: bitter, debt, flat tax, IRS, taxes, US posted by GoldenAh
