    Oh. No wonder you want to tax so heavily then. That is gonna take a LOT of money.

    If those people own or rent . . . they are paying taxes (landowners factor in property tax when renting)

    If those people ever buy anything, there is a good chance they are paying taxes

    If those people work, there is a good chance they are paying taxes.

    But yes, the people who live for free, don't work and don't buy taxable items don't have to pay taxes. If that is a lot of people, this country has problems.

    OK sucks ass. I want high standards.

    Can I just go with the governmental case that if you don't, you'll be fined, imprisoned and killed if you resist? :wub:

    It's hard to forget next to nothing. While I believe some level of government is necessary, there are precious few areas where this is the case, and they're typically quite fleeting moments.

    I wasn't much talking about the average folks who are actually employed by the government :)
