Where do our taxes go?
We use roads we pay tolls.
We park our cars we feed the meter.
We go to a park we pay entrance fees.
We use the courts, we pay court costs etc.
They tax income, sales, license plates, fuel, food, alcohol, cigarettes, hotels, car rentals, and on and on.
Why are we stupid enough to put up with this?

Taxes are a reality. Its needed to maintain a nice state and keep things running like a clock. You have nice roads, nice parks, nice lakes, great law officers - that takes tax money.
BUT, when a state blows the money like a drunk liberal, that is when you have to BS and tell them to shove it. ESPECIALLY in states that just pizz it away on taking more care of illegals than their own citizens in [insert name of whatever state sounds like that here ]. States that have crappy roads, congested roads, traffic everywhere = Where did all the money go Mr. tax man? Show me what and where it all went. Oh, the bums, and the help this and help that, oh the free this and free that - F-THAT !

Too much government, too many laws, too many and too much taxation, too much control over the people. That is the line in the sand.
