39. We don't all have those particular expenses

Fri Mar 25, 2016, 12:01 AM

Mar 2016

No matter what expenses one does have, it still is greater than what is being proposed or what the European model offers.

I don't have the ability to pay more taxes at face value. I certainly do if I subtract all of the other costs I have that most countries offer as a right.

I'm railing against anyone who thinks that moving our country to join the rest of the developed world is a bad idea.
