My most unpatriotic day of the year!

Yep, starting a 3:30 pm yesterday, I’m currently going through my most unpatriotic 24 hours of the year. I visited my taxman yesterday!
After dutifly sending off over a quarter of my paycheck, every payday to Uncle Sam, paying thousands a year in property taxes and sales taxes, I’m now told I have to dig up another 3700 bucks for good old Uncle Sam. This is LUDICROUS, HIGHWAY ROBBERY, AND TOTALLY MISALIGNED WITH OUR CONSTITUTION! If our forefathers, reacted with the Boston Tea Party, over a little tax on TEA, what would they have done when the government demanded at 40 to 50 percent TAX on EVERY PENNY THEY EARNED.
I am retired (but fortunatley working a new job) and my TAX bill this year, handily exceeded my retirement pension!

A VERY UNPATRIOTIC DAY!

Hopefully I won’t feel this UNPATRIOTIC again, until April 14th, when I actually have to send off that check.
