This week, on a 40 hour paycheck, the government took 17% of my earnings, plus about 7% more from my employer that I could have earned, right off the top. That's 24%

And I don't make a lot of money on a 40 hour week. I have to work a good bit of overtime to really jump up to the higher brackets.

And, this is before I pay the gas tax, the property tax, the sales tax.

and to think the rebels revolted over a 3% stamp act and a tea tax.

So even if we ignore all of the secondary taxes, the hidden taxes, the increased costs of goods, etc, my government, essentially, wants me to spend a quarter of my time working for no gain.

I could use that extra 25% in earnings to do a number of things, economically, or, absent the taxes, I could spend that time with my kids, or in some academic or leisure pursuit, and still have the same take-home earnings.

This is blatantly immoral. I am an honest, hard-working father and husband. I keep the peace. I am not wealthy, I have not embezzled anything from anyone. I do not wish to use government services. I only wish to be left to my own meager desires, and to the wealth I have created.

I don't require a second job. Wasn't my point, Blood.

[DumbNelmcrece]

See what I mean? With the extra cash, I could have invested in your next forum!

thats the only way around the tax man.

Not good enough. The way around the tax man is to rid ourselves of the taxes.

Tax here is 20% between the £8109 limit and about £35,000. Over that is 40% then 50%.

National insurance is either 10.6% or 12% over £600ish per month.

Not good enough. Eliminate the position. Let's get serious.

[Dr.Hoodoba]

Refuse to pay the bastards. I haven't paid taxes in decades. Fuck 'em.

Not good enough. Refuse the idea that they have a right to charge us in the first place. Publicly.

[ketNavatutt]

No one has a claim on my life. And what I produce is at the expense of my life.

The claim is invalid. Inherently.

Sure, do that too. But stop paying them. Fuck 'em. Taxation is tyranny.
