I went to a financial advisor the other day. He was advising me on saving for the future. Well, he told me that we already arepaying approx. 40%  in taxes. ALL TAXES!! Not just what comes out of our weekly paycheck, but added... our sales tax, local tax and school tax. He said it adds up to about 40%. Nice huh?

We're paying more than 40% if you add in all the fees that are being levied against us as well.

who cares if we pay 80 per cent as long as we get the things we need to be safe.

How about 100% Sal? Like Judy D, Son of Sam and Linda Bellick he understands the importance of high taxes.

I guess that Sal's right someone has to pay for all the lazy slugs that don't want to work.
