I don't think we could bindle all our taxes up for 20%. I just dont. Hell...I lose 48% right off the top between fed, state and fica. Now I realize thats not from dollar one but the number is FAR more than 20% of my gross. Then add in all the other taxes. Think about when the asshole at the city drops by your office and leaves you a bill for having that nice new computer and leather sofa in there. Think about the ....what is it now .22 cents per gallon fed tax? PER GALLON! UFB...how did anyone allow this? PER F'ing Gallon. That one blows my mind. Then there is SS. I have a much better plan for SS. When people turn 70...have them step into a trash compactor. Society will then be safe from their bad health, expensive nursing homes and deadly driving. Now thats SOCIAL SECURITY <g>
