Taxes

Just had some randomn thoughts on taxes seeing as though its tax season and all. The government takes our money, the more we make the more they take. But I think we all need to readjust our way of thinking of this. Maybe we should consider taxes as a fee or a bill. The service industry is thriving, parially due to the fact that we have exported all of our blue collar jobs...but I digress. Think of it like this, the government, i.e. democratic society, provides a service. It creates (or is supposed to create) an environment in which we may thrive. I don't know about all of you out there, but I CAN'T WAIT to hit the next tax bracket, when I do I will happily hand over a higher percentage of my income, I would be honored to do so. The more I am paying in taxes then the more I am making. I'm good with that.

Instead we (or atleast the right) are consumed with greed. The truth is that complaining about paying taxes when your tax payment is more than many families bring in all year before tax, is just plain greedy. Suck it up top 1% pay your taxes and be thankful that you get to stay on top in a country that helps you to succeed.
