↑this. Taxes are really starting to piss me off, these days. They throw taxes around like a company trying to boost profits, instead of what a government is supposed to be in the first place. What ever happened to NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION? We get absolutely zero say on what happens to the money that gets taxed from us, and where it comes from/how much. It's absolutely bullshit.
This is why I consider my daughter's teachers employees, and tell her to report any mismanagement of the store, so to speak, so I can give them shit through all the right channels whenever they start to get uppity about something.
It's super annoying. I pay a lot for a private school, yet I'm still paying for a public school which I don't use.
What other scenario outside of government does this happen? Nowhere!
If I buy a Chevy I don't have to write an additional check to Ford.
It's madness.
How else are they going to make their yearly payments on the debt? I am not sure what the interest rate is now, but I am assuming since it's over 20 trillion, it's probably quite a bit.
