Working for the Man

How many hours of your peasant life are spent working for the feudal lords? A lot:

This year, Americans have to work until July 15 to pay for the burden of government, more than six months.

In a new report, Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) has calculated that Americans will spend a total of 197 days toiling to pay for the cost of government.

[…]

The report, Cost of Government Day, shows that Americans will work 88 days to pay for federal spending; 40 days for state and local spending; and 69 days for total regulatory costs.

Six months of your life next year will be spent working to give a violent agency that’s spending every dollar it can get ahold of to further cement its power in order to steal even more from you. Feudalism never left, we’re the peasants while the state is the manor lord. We’re allowed to keep a portion of what we make for subsistence only because dead people don’t generate wealth that can be stolen.

One thought on “Working for the Man”

  1. Something i saw the other day:”What’s the difference between slavery and income tax? You can escape from slavery.” Really thats what we are we work to give our money to someone else.
