1. Well, if they lower taxes enough....
Soon they will be in the realm of negative taxes, wherein we will all be PAID BY THEM to exist.
Think of the possibilities..... :)

3. I actually confronted a State Senator on that
did not point out what taxes pay for... the crew around him was enthralled anyway. I just point blank asked him that if my taxes were not paying his salary and he was still getting paid... who would pay his salary?

Let's just say the people listening to him went poof!

He felt a tad attacked at my ahem... implication of corruption... my lack of manners oh my.

5. My point surrounds tax cuts not creating jobs when there isn't demand.
