I hold no party affiliation, but I do give the government ( state, local ,and federal. ) 40 to 50 % of my paycheck. At what point will my earnings satisfy the needs of government?
60%?, 70 %?, 90 %?. will 90 % of my income be enough?. then I can keep the other 10 %  to pay my utility bills cell phone bill and maybe, just maybe have enough left over to buy some food.
