I just wish they would close some of the loopholes for the big corporations so they would carry their part of this tax burden.

We need Dave Ramsey for President!!! Our country needs to quit spending on things we don't need, like some of the ridiculous multimillion dollar studies, paying contracts to build things that never get built. Stop the waste so we can pay down some of this debt. We need to end our dependence on foreign oil, whatever it takes and quit borrowing from China. We need to pay them off once and for all and begin taking care of our own country for a change.

And yes, it is patriotic to pay taxes, but it is insulting to the tax payer to waste our money. We work hard for what we have, and they have no right to take our funds and waste them.

Also, the people who are able bodied, of sound mind, and living off the government need a kick in the rear. They need to go out and get a job like the rest of us to help with the burden, not contribute to it.
