Its got to end<br /><br />I know people who considered taking a second job as a university professor!!-- but decided against it because the AFTER tax earnings are LESS than minimum wage.<br /><br />Its parasitism masquerading as 'social justice' or paying your fair share. ITs all a lie. Its all theft-- by government, and by your neighbour too.<br /><br />Ethics are done in the West.

Let our surgeon use our private yacht in return for a free operation. A couple of observations: some of us don't have private yachts. And operations in hospitals are certainly recorded and entered into insurance company records. As for cheating other ways ... well, that happens anyway, and not for ideological reasons. AND ... there are countries where this is widespread, like Greece, which is half-way in the Third World.<br /><br />Surely it's better to fight for a government that only imposes necessary taxes. Yes, I know, easy to say, achieving it is a different matter.<br /><br />But I would take issue with you in general: the Irish did not, in the end, just evade British rule as much as they could. They fought a war to get their independence. <br /><br />I believe we need to think about how to organize in the US, with an eye to a future that is likely to be dramatically different from the past. <br /><br />The Democrats have grabbed the poisoned chalice. Now they will drink from it. We need to take advantage of the convulsions that will ensue. Doug1943https://www.blogger.com/profile/03833632801624062004noreply@blogger.com
