"What is abjectly arrogant is to assume you don't owe government a dime."

Taxed as earnings, taxed when used to purchase stuff, taxed a third time upon death.

You mean the government didn't get enough the first time or the second time?

To believe that the government gets one last grab of your stuff when you die means that the government deigned you could only hold onto stuff while you were alive and that it's then returned to its rightful owner. So, we're just keeping our stuff warm for Uncle Sam? None of it's really ours?

I'm only defending the principle of private property. Radical concept, I know.
