This taxpayer GETS IT.
As this editor wraps up taxes (and throws up a few times looking at the gross amount of money the government takes from her family while idiots claim they should take more), this thread resonated on many, many levels.
It’s just a damn good read as well.
Take a look:
The Gormogons ~ Been noodling over what pisses me off so much about paying taxes.
It's not just the money (though I pay an enormous amount).
It's more the attitude with which government and transfer payment recipients treat me.
{Cont.}
I don't expect plaudits or thank you notes or anything like that. Paying (reasonable and just) taxes is part of a citizen's duty.
I do expect not to be treated like a combination ATM and portable crapper.
{Cont.}
Government thinks it has an absolute right to income and wealth I personally have generated because reasons.
Recipients of "government" largesse don't give two f*cks about me, blame me for everything wrong in their lives, and scream that I'm not entitled to what I have.
{Cont.}
I'm getting sorely tested by the incessant harangues about high-earners and "one percenters."
F*ck you. F*ck you all. Without high earners and one-percenters, you wouldn't be able to fund even the meager portion of government vote-buying programs you administer.
{Cont.}
"The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (38.5 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (29.9 percent)."
Maybe shut your damned word holes + be thankful for those providing you food, shelter, clothing, medical care, etc.

The Gormogons ~ Look, I'll keep paying taxes. I don't like it. It's certainly not "fair" by any measure. But I'll keep paying.
Again, I don't need parades or plaudits.
All I ask is that you keep your gottdammed yaps shut about me, the one paying your way because you can't or won't.
