I'm not working from sun up to sun down and I've got weekends off.
- And you pay a portion of your wages to the government out of each paycheck to covert 5+ different taxes
- You then pay a tax on products you buy
- The products you buy are priced as high because of the 100+ different production taxes the manufacturer, shippin, store owner, etc. have to pay
- You then pay taxes for the car you drive, and insurance because you can't actually afford to cover an accident
- You pay taxes when you save for retirement, then pay taxes when you take that money back out
- You pay taxes when you die and leave your taxed wealth to your children
- They pay taxes in order to spend it
- All the while inflation is taxing every dollar by weakening its buying power each day
Enjoy your weeknds.

You do in the winter.
Not if you work the night shift.
