You think you have a RIGHT to healthcare? Well, fine.

I think i should have a RIGHT run my business for a profit without 50 cents of every dollar I spend (federal taxes, state taxes, city taxes, property taxes, sales tax) being "redistributed". It's straight-up robbery! How far we've come since feudalism. Now instead of the local lord forcefully taking half of everything I earn a buncha dudes in Washington DC VOTE to forecfully take half of everything I own.
I work for myself also and have to write that check every quarter but seeing with my Dad and before this with my sister. Changes have to have happen.I also look at my taxes as I get to live and work in this great country that has an environment that I could make the living I make so I give them their share. To prosper in this great country and then bitch about taxes is wrong to me.
