But please, stay the fuck off my interstate highways, do not enjoy the benefits of my military, and keep your kids out of my public schools. Assuming your municipality recieves federal funding, do NOT call the cops or the fire department if your life or home is in jeaopordy. And if you do have to call the local sheriff, don't use the 911 system.
If you or any or your loved ones go to college, promise me you won't take advantage of any federal grants. And if you haven't already bought your first home, promise me you won't go FDA when and if you do.
Guess what, NOBODY likes paying taxes. And yes, we self-employed do feel screwed by the fact that we have to pay for our own "welfare" via the self-employment social security tax (which I prefer to refer to as simply the "self-employment tax"). But unless you're prepared to either fight the system, or privatize every social system in the US (yes, we do have them) or stop utilizing those systems, pay your fucking share.
Sorry, looks like somebody touched a nerve...
