Taxes pay for things you would have to pay for anyway. I get your level wants the world to be little Suzy's lemonade stand where the costs of the pitchers, water, refrigerator to make ice, lemons, home to sleep in while running stand, police to protect from marauding gangs who would steal the lemonade after raping and murdering Suzy are not a factor. In business there are costs to doing business. To have a society you can make money in is a cost of doing business. If you have quality of life, then screw it, you are doing well.
If I had a few beers in me and a red magic marker I would change that "R" on that dress to a "B". It would not take much. People would be laughing their arses off at her and she would be lapping it up, thinking she was so clever. Probably that would get me banned from Twitter and Facebook though.The fact that do not have accounts will make that easy for them. Nevertheless if they did that it would still be hurtful because they would not be respecting who I am as a person. Probably I would cry.

Bill Maher calls out AOC's 'Tax the Rich' dress: 'Let's not lie' and say the rich don't pay taxes 'I'm all for ending income inequality, but let's not lie,' the HBO star said https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/bill-maher-aoc-tax-the-rich-dress "Real Time" host Bill Maher called out U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., over the politically charged "Tax the Rich" dress she wore at the Met Gala. Maher began the conversation by slamming the elite New York City ball where all the "servers" wore masks while the celebrity guests did not. "There's something about this that's not liberal to me," Maher said. "Do the germs know who the good people are?" The HBO star then pivoted to the congresswoman's dress and cited a statistic from New York City that shows "the richest 65,000 New Yorkers out of 8 million people pay 51 percent of taxes." "It's not like we don't tax the rich at all," Maher said. "I'm all for ending income inequality, but let's not lie. The rich pay a lot of the taxes." "Yes, there are lots of things we need to amend about the capitalist system. We have crony capitalism in this country, no doubt about it. I'm just saying, you're wearing ‘Tax the Rich’ on your ass and people are always saying the rich don't pay taxes. The rich pay some taxes! They pay a big part of the freight already. I'm not saying it shouldn't be more perhaps, but let's not lie," Maher added. (More at above url)
