Just A Reminder For Those Of You That Actually Pay Taxes :)

I honestly don't mind paying income taxes. I get a lot out of that - Interstate highways, national parks, a strong defense, unjustified wars, inaugural balls for George W. - it all evens out in the end. I HATE paying self-employment social security. I have always hated FICA/MICA or whateverthefuck acronym we're using this week. I recognize that we can't just stop paying into this totally broken system that was supposed to only be a stop-gap measure; but that doesn't mean I can't resent the hell out of it.

If I had healthcare, I might be a wee bit less peeved. Go ahead, call me a socialilst. And then feel free to kiss my red-tinged ass.
