Well, I just checked my mail... Interesting...

Paying taxes is part of the bargain we make to have a society, and I
have no problem with paying the tax on each dollar earned - the same
tax as the next guy...
BUT, progressive taxation is punishment for being willing to work
harder, or longer, or smarter, than the next guy...
Progressive taxation is unconstitutional in that it treats different
groups of people differently - which is specifically forbidden under
our Constitution and Bill of Rights......
The very foundation of this Republic is that no man is better than
another, and no less...
The foundation is cracking...

For me it is a moot issue... In the not distant future I will stop
working and spend my remaining few years doing the traveling and the
fun things we have never had... One of the first things I will do is
fly into the DC Metro area, land, get a taxi, go to the intersection
of Constitution and Independence Avenues, face towards the Capitol
Building, and give the professional politicians who write the laws of
this land the hand signal that they are still number one with me, and
forever and forever they can go whistle for the punitive tax dollars
they have been extorting from me the past 52 years...
