Threads like this always remind me of the onion article titled something to the effect of "local man is fervent defender of what he thinks the Constitution says".
If I came off that way it was not my intention.
While I do feel that much of what they federal government has become is predicated on improper constitutional interpretation, my point in this thread is to complain about yet another thinly veiled wealth transfer. I already take home only 58% of my gross income. That means that 42% of what I make is shelled out in taxes or fees. I live in a state that does not have an income tax, so those taxes and fees are paid to the federal government, the most inefficient money managing entity in the history of the world.
