We’re all chumps

It’s tax season again and I’m feeling like a first-class chump, a real loser, a victim.

My wife and I make plenty of money and pay what I would have always called our “fair share” of taxes to support the governments – state and federal. But for the past two years I’ve seen that money wasted on insanely stupid things, on hurtful things, on illegal things and I feel so hopeless and angry.

We know the Tramp doesn’t release his tax filings because most normal people would be outraged by either how little he pays or that he doesn’t pay anything or that he probably got a refund. That’s how the big bad boys play the game – let the suckers pay. And pay. And pay.

Isn’t it time for us suckers to take back the system? What if none of us paid? File Don’t Pay. Let them go after hundreds of millions of us. Force them to acknowledge that the system is rigged by the fat cats. Simplify the stupid system and make it equitable – for everyone.
