Why should I reduce my use of goverment services?
I'm a net taxpayer, I give much more to the government than I use in their services or welfare. The government has created a monopoly on roads, you expect me to get around without using them?
And if I ever see a penny of my SS I would have payed MUCH more in than I will get out of whatever paltry SS check I get, so you better believe I'll be taking that too.
People who are net tax receivers and/or living off the government should be reducing their use of government services, not me.
I'm all for reducing spending on things that transfer wealth from some people to others, its theft.
These billoinaires are not using the same argument, they are complaining that they are not being taxed enough.
As Warren Buffet should, they should put their money where their mouth is and pay up.
