GP Been noodling over what pisses me off so much about paying taxes.
It's not just the money (though I pay an enormous amount).
It's more the attitude with which government and transfer payment recipients treat me.

GP I don't expect plaudits or thank you notes or anything like that. Paying (reasonable and just) taxes is part of a citizen's duty.
I do expect not to be treated like a combination ATM and portable crapper.

GP Government thinks it has an absolute right to income and wealth I personally have generated because reasons.
Recipients of "government" largesse don't give two f*cks about me, blame me for everything wrong in their lives, and scream that I'm not entitled to what I have.

GP I'm getting sorely tested by the incessant harangues about high-earners and "one percenters."
F*ck you. F*ck you all. Without high earners and one-percenters, you wouldn't be able to fund even the meager portion of government vote-buying programs you administer.

GP "The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (38.5 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (29.9 percent)."
Maybe shut your damned word holes + be thankful for those providing you food, shelter, clothing, medical care, etc.

GP Look, I'll keep paying taxes. I don't like it. It's certainly not "fair" by any measure. But I'll keep paying.
Again, I don't need parades or plaudits.
All I ask is that you keep your gottdammed yaps shut about me, the one paying your way because you can't or won't.
