Look at the total tax burden on the economy some time. We're flushing over half of everything it produces down the government at one level or another, and 51% seems eager to make it a lot worse.
That's sad, because it's self-destructive, parasitic, and just plain dumb.
I could self-deport, and deprive the nation of the benefit of my labor, but I think I'd rather stick around and point out that when we gripe about the economy, it's that way because we're hiring crooks to MAKE it that way.
