Gus, now the question is just tax?
In the strictest sense, government exists to do what citizens can not do alone. National defense, police, fire protection, and such.
Tax that pays for those things money fairly spent.
What was the question again?
ah, the question of taxes and how much tax is enough? but does anyone know for sure?
seems like there's been taxes from at or even before the advent of this great country of ours. i hope we don't lose it over mindless bickering.
seems like we've got into two streams of thought about taxes: one is income, realty (land), and sales taxes, plus special uses.
special use taxes might be firearms permits, building permits, water permits, even fire districts.
taxes have a life of their own. no dog for me, because i'm not paying a dog registration fee. (no cat fee either).
it's a serious subject, it's gonna take a lot of talk before all is said & done?
