I feel that I know how to best spend MY money that I work for, and not some politician or bureaucrat in D.C.

Please don't be offended Phi Sig, I totally agree that people pay too much in taxes. And the "stupid republican" comment was mostly just joking
The problem with this tax relief plan is that A.)The people who need the money can hardly get anything back and B.)The economy's not ready for it.
Did you know some guy actually sued the U.S. government and won because it is actually illegal to require the people to pay income tax? (I forget the case, unfortunately, but I know immediately some laws were ammended).
