The 1913 income tax was supposed to be temporary and just on the richest 2% of the country but as soon as 1942 we saw all US households paying income taxes. It may have been an even bigger lie than "just two weeks to slow the curve." (Graph via)

there is nothing in this world more permanent than a temporary government program. FYI the tax the rich idea was used to hide their belief that everyone is rich except themselves.
ReplyDeleteI'd be in favor in running a search for the word "sunset" for each tax or government program passed and eliminating out of hand all those who's date has passed. You get a lot of upset government officials and many voters saying - wait that was still in effect?!?!
