You know what would help me? As it stands I pay $70 a month for my health insurance. Not too bad. I pay over $700 each month for state and federeal taxes just from my pay check. Not to mention the taxes on my oil, gas, clothing, any manufactured goods I purchase and my property.

Get rid of even one third of this obscene burden and I could pay out of pocket for my medical expenses and still have enough to give to the multiple sclerosis and diebetes people, both of which run in my family.

Why doesnt Michael Moore go find out why over 50% of my earned wages are forcibly taken from me? I choose to pay for health insurance. I didnt choose to be a cash cow the government can squeeze with its guns and prisons.

You know what that $700 each month can do for me and my loved ones? I could afford a home without bars on the windows. I could afford private school. I could afford a one income home and a 24/7 parent to be with the children. I could afford charity for once in my life. I could afford a safer/cleaner car.

Nope. The government doesnt want that.
