      Taxes have never been the issue. How they are used is. But that gets obfuscated so that the 99% shoot ourselves in the foot

        Taxes are DEFINITELY an issue when I pay more taxes than many billion dollar corporations.

          Yes. You (and I, and most of us) are experiencing the end result of the American people being played with a deceiving narrative. “No taxes” is a con game to get us to this type of situation
