Stephanie J Brown (2/14/2013)Fortunately, I don't work for the government..
Oh yeah? wait a while. With the way things are moving towards federalizing,borrowing, and offshoring everything today in our society, we will all be working for them soon, or at least until the country goes belly up and taps out.. Then it won't matter, because China will own us all.. Small and medium private enterprise is doomed in this country right now IMHO. They are being taxed out of existence, while large private enterprise is slowly being federalized by all the litany of government regulations they now have to abide by and enforce.. It's a brave new world now people. 😀
By the time you add up all the federal, state, and local taxes, then add in the fees, licenses, social security, medicare, gas tax, phone tax, and so on some say you are paying over 40% of everything you make to some form of government. So we all already work for the government, they just do not pay us we have to pay them. We get a lot but they sure take a lot as well.
But I diverge...
