Agreed.

The masses do not bother to see just how many times that same money is double and triple taxed. You get taxed at the time you make it (whether from your business, income, etc. via income for the year) and then you're taxed again on any purchases you make, your investments, and taxed when you withdraw it at retirement, and should you have any left, you get taxed on your estate (if high enough), and so on and so forth.

In short, that same money is already "taxed" over and over again to the point of being ridiculous.
