Back to taxes though...
Your approach to the subject is still too partisan for me. I see both the
democrats and the republicans as being a bunch of idiots, but if push comes
to shove I'd rather get value for the dollors paid in taxes so I might
sometimes vote for the democrats. The democrats will give us more and
better social welfare programs, and for which we have already paid. In the
best of all possible worlds, we'd all pay less and have less government
interference altogether. Sadly, we're never going to get anywhere with
either party. Don't hold your breath.
