"output", you mean like hard work leading to feelngs of accomplishment,
self worth,self determination and a job well done?
That's so old 50s and just leads to independence.

I feel your pain on the taxes, punishment for being a hard worker. 
I'll still take the self worth a job well done produces though.

I know that I'm going to probably have to cut a $7k-10k check when I finally get around to doing the taxes.
The firmest kick in the balls is thinking "okay, I need to produce about $12k in revenue so that I have enough money after taxes to *pay my taxes*."

Ya JD, right now your working close to 1/2 the year to pay your taxes.
But don't worry, Obama will see to it that you will pay more.

My fiancee never believed me when I told her that she didn't start earning money for herself until the end of the day on Tuesday. Then her W-2 came in last week and everything clicked:
her: "What the *(^&%!!! $xx,xxx in federal taxes?!?"
me: I just smiled and said, "Remember when you used to make fun of me for calling the government Uncle Scam? Now you understand why."
Hey, at least Obama's health care reform resulted in me paying an extra $2500 in medical insurance costs last year.
Sensible, responsible people are losing the battle. We're aren't wealthy enough to be minimally affected by Uncle Scam and not poor enough to benefit.

John,
What aspect of the law caused your insurance to go up $2,500 last year?
Thanks

PERFECT analysis. 
Everyone should be required to watch Judge Judy for a week to see
how we are being ripped off.
Problem is "the workers" are still working at 4 pm, when the show airs, to provide the benefits for these system milkers and for the ones home watching having a beer and cigar on our $ and taking notes. Unbelievable.
