I was listening to a tax expert talk about this years taxes yesterday.
The host asked him if he was for a flat tax. He said no but he was for
tax simplification. Our federal tax system is TOO DAMN COMPLEX! He said
the problem is there is a sector of the economy that makes money off it
being complex. I find the federal tax system complexity an insult to
Americans who indeed should rebel over it. Don't let IRS bullies push
you around!

Everyone hates taxation - there's a tax on your earned income; a tax
on your property; on your gas and oil; on the car that you drive to
work; and on tobacco, beer and pot - next they'e be wanting to put a
tax on your seat. It's just outrageous.
The rent is too damn high!

The property tax on this place is about $100 a month in real dollars -
you take that out of a social security check and what have you got
left? I guess you could take a city bus to the grocery store and buy
some beans and rice. While you're there, buy some potatoes - but watch
out - they might try to tax your food stuffs. Go figure.
"This is about the time of the year, every year, where I wish there
was a rewind button. November and December are filled with holiday
fun, extra days off, and getting together with friends and family.
Then January hits and "wham!" -- all of your credit card bills from
December become due and Uncle Sam comes knocking at your door to get
you to do your taxes by April 15. Happy New Year, right?"
