Everybody bitches about taxes. I do to. but then I realize I am only paying for services the government has rendered and will render. Its usually not how much I pay, but how it is used.

The government is too goddamned big and burns money at a ridiculous rate. I read a book a few years ago. The title was something like Government Waste A to Z or along those lines.

Ya, our welfare system blows ass. Half the people I know on it think it is a career and have no problem cheating the system.

The other half are working their asses off to get away from it, only to be redtaped to a point where they have to stay on it. They get menial jobs that pay barely above minimum wage and are told that is too much to recieve welfar. However, it is no where near enough to raise kids on.


Instead of just dropping taxes, they would be better to reorganize government spending habbits.
