I don't understand why we are obligated to be taxed a dozen or so times on every dollar we earn, especially since each of those dollars has been taxed already as revenue from the companies that produced the goods.
Revenue isn't taxed.

Why does NYS need so much of my (and everyone else's) tax money? That is the real question.

No the real question is why does somebody in Jr High School worried about taxes?

Do you even know why taxes are needed?

New York is a Socialist state that thinks your money belongs to them. Maybe people in New York should vote republican, or change their socialist masters.

Not in junior high. I make a good bit, and pay more than my share in taxes. Most of it goes to entitlements that should be cut.

The two biggest entitlements, SS and Medicare, have been paid for with FICA taxes, which leaves Defense. But you want to cut entitlements?

:hmm:
