I live in California and am taxed out the ASS. And I am super all for it, because California's economy, job training, assistance programs, and strong worker and consumer protection laws brought me from homeless to making good money.

Same, but Europe here. Free healthcare and mostly free education, now a decent paying job. I don't mind paying a ton of taxes, what pisses me off is that the mega wealthy don't.

The reason I'm paying so much in taxes isn't that homeless guy with mental illness that needs a meal, or that immigrant that needs healthcare because his fucking asshole boss is exploiting him and not providing proper job safety.

It pains me that so many good, decent people are falling so hard for this fascist propaganda, and don't realize they're being swindled by the mega rich that are making more money than they ever did...

Yeah I make good money in Cali and am happy to get taxed accordingly. It rocks here.
