Quaint and eloquent... Do you understand that I am talking about the working poor? As far as I know, people on welfare and disability and such don't pay taxes. I don't see how your quarterly taxes have anything to do with the man or woman working at Walmart, messed over as far as insurance goes, making a non-living wage?

Most people who are working poor are younger people without marketable experience or skills. I was the same way when I got out of the Army. Not much need for tank commanders, but I got two crappy night jobs and used my GI Bill to go to college during the day. Took awhile, but things worked out. As far as taxes, I just think it is fundamentally wrong for the govt to take one out of every three dollars you make.
