Good one, Rav.

Average person has no idea how much they pay in taxes,
and soon to be more as they recind the Bush tax cuts.

Meantime we are $13 Tillion in debt, meaning every man, woman
and child in this country owes $42,000 .

Larry it's just a ploy to get more of your $$$.
Make people think it's a good cause so they can help the helpless.

They're not helpless, there is AA which is a proven program that costs
the taxpayer nothing.

Just like they passed gambling under the ploy that the taxes would
help the elderly and schools. What a joke.
Biggest thing it did was, and does, create a new disease of compulsive
gambling.

Ya, they and the bleeding hearts are both looking out for us and any way
to get and spend our $$.
