So let me get this straight, Greg. If I don't believe that the government should be able to tax me at obscene rates, I should not say anything about how the government ought to spend the money that it has raised through taxation. If that is the case, well ... I guess Republicans ought to shut their collective yappers when it comes to defence spending, etc...

Seriously, you don't have to like the guy, but for you to call him a hypocrit is a bit extreme in this case. You too attempt to protect as much of your income as you can from high rates of taxation (e.g. protected education savings plans for Ella, etc...), and yet you want a voice in your government and how it spends. You don't believe we ought to spend on a socialized medical industry, but you do believe in military spending.

Long a short. You guys are doing the same thing. You just have a different belief in how the taxed money ought to be spent.
