but what is stoppable is our own financial demise...
avoid taxes legally..
avoid giving uncle sam anymore of your hard earned money then you can....
because we have competing givemedats...the ones receiving all the welfare/free food/free housing/ etc AND the ones in govt receiving all those huge obscene salaries/bennies/pensions...its almost impossible to go after both groups....
Well I retired recently, so my taxes — income taxes — should be nearly nothing. But of course everything is taxed nowadays . . . It still really galls me that over my working life I paid thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars in taxes, much of which was used to subsidize irresponsibility and indolence. I don’t see this changing any time soon. Indeed, it’s likely to grow worse as we become indistinguishable from the socialist Europeans.
