jerryskids 5,216 Posted August 23, 2017 A tax on the poor and stupid for the most part. Pays a lot of money for kids to go to college here though. True but it is fun to get a ticket or 5 when it gets this high. Question is: do I care enough to get my ass out of the house at some point today? Answer: probably not, unless there is some other reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I, myself, get a kick out of the "it's a stupid tax/waste of money" crowd. Just stop by any Starbucks, some financial wizard, sipping a $6 coffee, will be glad to lecture you on it... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not any one person really needs more than a couple million. How great would it be to make 50 millionaires instead of the usual none. Also.......THE best way to pay off our National Debt.
