Taxes are like dues, paying them is the price of membership and for the goods and services they provide. If you don't what the club, condo, homeowners association spends money on, then vote for new directors, if that doesn't work and you don't like the decisions of the club, quit. If you don't like the condo association, move. But forget about the idea that money paid in is your money. It ain't.

This rant paid for with my money.

Taxes are theft of money from the individual by the government for programs used to limit/destroy liberty. While limited government is recognized as a necessary evil unlimited government with an insatiable appetite for spending other people's money with complete disregard for their responsibilities and constiutionally limited powers is the theft at gunpoint of liberty of the citizens of the US and the bankrolling of tyranny.

Every single agency that interfers in daily life and liberty requires tax dollars in order to execute its goals. It is time to starve the beast!

Defund, defund, defund! Next time Obama complains, defund the White House (with exception of Secret Service of course).
