In one of the forums I belong to there is a discussion about taxes and how they are going to keep going up, guess what they are, at least until this war is over and we stop spending money on it. I keep hearing about how all of the Democratic ideas are going to cost us tons of money, guess what, if the war is over, the trillions of dollars that is going to that can go to all of these ideas, there may even be some left over!

I don’t think that Americans really know what the government is spending on the war, war is expensive and people take advantage of that. Trust me it does not cost a billion dollars to build a few tanks. There paying not just for equipment but for the solders to be there, there paying for there food and housing, think about it. Way too much is being spent on another country and we the citizens of the United states are put on the back burner, as our country goes into a recession, our president only cares about his oil stock and trying to make himself look good in the history books, guess what it’s not going to happen, give up!

My biggest pet peeve is that people complain about paying there taxes, but they want these services that taxes provide, the public school system, roads, bridges and so on. If we don’t pay taxes for them they will NOT be there!

Maybe we could switch to a private school system so that only the rich will get an education, pretty much we can go back to medieval times and live like that. Since doing private schools would probably cost parents around $10,000 per child, per year. Do you pay that in taxes? Probably not.

I’m only 24 and I get it. Stop being so greedy money is not everything, if you have enough to put a roof over your head, have a running car and food, then you have enough to live on, get rid of the other home and the 3 vacations a year and try living on minimum wage. You don’t like that idea do you?
