Hope Today Isn't Too Taxing

Another 15 April has rolled arround. & until we can get rid of the 16th Amendment, many of us are forced to pay additional tribute to the IRS above that taken at gunpoint throughout the year.

As I was listenning to this I couldn't help but notice a bit of hypocritical irony on the part of the Beatles. Griping about how much you are taxed. But you are being taxed that much to pay for the things that you want the government to provide in the 1st place. It is like they are saying let every other rich person pay, not me. (OK at the time they were't mega-rich, but they weren't poor either.)

Also, only 5% would be nice to see again. At times it seems like it IS closer to the "19 for me, 1 for you" line. & I am on the lower end of the scale.
