We are forced to deal with the IRS constantly, and they are definitely an oppressive and corrupt organization.
Property taxes
Constant surveillance of ALL our communications and actions. If you are doing something naughty in the privacy of your own bedroom. It is likely you are being watch by federal agents with infrared.
The federal reserve printing money like it's nothing, throwing hundreds of billions of dollars around and not enough being transparent about where it goes.
We are just getting shafted more and more. It seems like every couple years some expense or inconvenience is forced upon us.
When will it end? When will people say enough is enough and demand we clean up this system?
I guess as long as there are rich and powerful people profiting off this corrupt system, they will keep it going.
America... It used to be the land of the free. Now it is simply the land of $$$$$. That's all it's really about anymore.

Fair enough, we should have a simpler tax code. Our tax burden is considered extremely low for a developed nation though....

No its not very likely at all. Possible, but they do have better things to do. Now your email and phone calls...thats a different story entirely, and one I am upset about. Your blatent conspiracy fear mongering makes it harder for people to pay attention to serious and real threats like email and phone monitoring.

Simpler wont change us being shafted. Look at where the money goes in the end if you want to know by whom. And no its not the 1%, its the .01%.

Dunno, but it would help if people were rational about it, unlike most of this post.

Yup, I agree. Its why so many people talking here about how unfair it would be to stop making the rich richer annoy me.
You're right, but every kid of the original welfare person, is now on welfare and their kids will be on it next.
*checks
NOPE. I'm not. Nor is one of my sisters. The third gets food stamps though, I suppose that counts.
Hmm....*checks childhood friend whose parents was on welfare
Nope he isnt either, did join the marines, and is now a supervisor at a company. Not rich, but not bad.
Oh look, you're full of false propaganda.
Why dont you go study up some, and recognize the REAL numbers.
Haha. Gotta love politics forums. Full of angry, raging people typing furiously. Entertainment....
Anyone who thinks that things in the US are fine and dandy at this point has gotta be seriously mislead in my opinion. The actions of the federal reserve alone are enough to make you realize the absurdity of it all.
The US Government is very, very, VERY huge and powerful. We don't stand a chance against it.
It's still the land of the free, but just free for the illegals and those that have been on welfare for generations.
This is so, so true......unfortunately
