Bottom line is I'm sick of the government picking my pockets clean. I look at my check every week and what I pay in taxes is just outrageous. There has to be a limit, unless of course you want to live in a socialist society...I don't. And there's plenty of waste/pork in government and the dollars for Bush flying around in his plane are a drop in the bucket in comparison.

I suggest looking at the ways the government wastes your money on silly little things, not the ways they actually allocate funds for public services that are needed. Don't look at your check and think 'Get rid of the welfare programs!" Look at it and say "Stop trying to get Reagan on the dime, stop wasting time by delivering fake turkeys in Iraq, and such..." And our Republican government is the one taking all those taxes, honey. "We see no change in sight..."
