Would you rather be a slave or pay progressive tax?

[Citizen James]

Lets see...

Keep at least half my income when I'm doing well (and more if I'm having a fiscially bad year, like I have for the last several), while possessing the right to vote, speak my mind freely (including expressing my opinions as to how my tax dollars should be spent), even own firearms should I choose to do so.

or.....

Get paid nothing, live in a shack (at best), have no rights at all, get fed table scraps and other things that are good for little more than substinence, live in constant humiliation, and get beaten if I fail to do as told (or is massah is in a bad mood, or a good mood, or whatever.)

It amazes me that some people have become so spoiled that they don't even begin to realize how good they have it, and so jaded that they demand even more from a nation which has been beyond generous to them.

Perhaps it would be good to listen to Kennedy's famous words and start considering what you do for this nation which you have been blessed to have been born in, rather than just whine about how unfair it is you can't be given even more.
