1. Taxes
The value of your labor is stolen via taxes.

2. Inflation
Prices rise when governments print money. As prices rise, people work harder, only to pay more in taxes and inflation.

There is a season for taxes? I want to live where you do, because I have to pay them all year round.

Tax season is that period from January to April, it is where the amount of threads complaining about taxes go up as if it is a shock to people that April 15th is Tax Day. I never implied that taxes were only paid during a season, you just made that assumption.

you just made it up then. Gotcha.

Where is the complaining? The o.p. is posing a rhetorical question.

And since you are guessing it's tax season you must be one of those 47%ers who don't pay taxes.

ok to continue....

The money system is designed to keep people poor, not to make them rich. The monetary system is designed to keep people working hard for money. Money enslaves those who are uneducated financially. Those who are financially uneducated become slaves to a paycheck.

Quite the assumption, and an inaccurate one. Though it isn't hard to guess it is tax season because it is a fact that it is tax season. Did your taxes surprise you this year and you finally actually own taxes?
