If you are happy paying taxes, please be my guest. Perhaps you would volunteer to pay my tax bill too.
Maybe you are making so much money that it doesn't matter to you.
We are in the top 1% and working darn hard for it, while not getting our fair share back.
Let me ask you, is it constructive to have high income people feeling taxed to the point where they wonder if it is worth it at all, resulting in a drop of the nation's productivity? How long do you expect this might occur without our nation experiencing a brain drain?
Of course, we could always count on the welfare and entitlement crowd to pick up the banner and march forward for the sake of our future generations.
