Ma'am;.. You and your crew are awful lucky I am not Lord of the Universe... I swear to God I would make you all pay as you should have been paying all along.... The thing is, that it is unfair... A lot of crooks have come and gone who never paid their share of what they have cost this country, and so that leaves a lot of rich people holding a bigger bag than they should have, or would have, if things had ever been right... Juanito Verde would do well to look for some example of absolute property rights... Property once supported this country, and for that reason it had rights, and for that reason property owners had the control of government... But it was never without responsibility; that is, obligation, and trying to lay off all the cost of society on the poor has never worked, and never will... The rich will pay taxes, or they will lose their property... That is the way it has always been: The people have their property as a trust, and they pay for that trust with taxes...No one gets a free ride; and we are seeing the ruin of this country because all our roads, our infrastructure, our schools, have been neglected to feed profits.... The people have paid what they can; the safety net has been cut off from under us, and the land has gone to pot... The chickens have come home to roost; -AND pile the price of the society on the poor however you want, -and we can't pay... That means that the rich have got to pay, or shake loose of all their loot....Forget the idea that property is an absolute right...Every right is only as secure as it serves society... We thought that all our public property in private hands would serve a public good.... Alright....Where is the Good??? Show us the good by paying for the support you get, or lose it.... There is no reason the people, -Who are the Law-, should ever accept private property in few hands, and pay for the privilage of supporting and defending it for those who will not pay for a right only they enjoy...This is not the way this society was set up...Only the income tax has been constitutional; but it has been used to break the working people, and to give the rich a break... Let the rich pay... Make them pay... It is the only way short of revolution that we will survive our future....Thanks...Sweeney
