But how many people actually live within their means? How many 'save for a rainy day'? This mantra of 'tax the producers, tax the producers' is ridiculous. This country was founded primarily on self-reliance and it must stay there to survive. All of this tax and spend crap is nothing more than politicians creating entire generations of people dependent on handouts from the government to live, thereby buying the votes they need to maintain power. And of course as those handouts become accepted 'rights' the demand for 'what i deserve' goes up..and taxpayers must shell it out to raise the unearned dividends. It is amazing that so many kool-aid drinkers just don't seem to get the fact that the country was much better off before Johnson started all of this 'Great Society' nonsense to get his mention in the history books. Now, they line up for free healthcare...and common sense dictates that nothing comes free. And of course part of BoBo's plan includes rationing healthcare as they do in the United Kingdom. So, it's crazy costly, and if a bureaucrat doesn't think that you will live long enough to justify the cost, you still get to die because you have been taxed to the point of poverty so you can't afford anything else. Great plan, Einstein!
