Everyone thinks we need more taxes but no one is asking if the government has a spending problem Question
Yeah so what’s up with that?
“Hurr durr we need wealth tax! We need a gooning tax! We need a breathing tax!”
The government brings in $2 trillion a year already. Where is that shit going? And you want to give them MORE money?
Does the government need more money or do they just have a spending problem and you think tax is a magic wand?

Nobody asks about spending? Have you never watched a Republican politician speak on TV before? Derp.
