so i was working on some business cards for a client, and i got to thinking about how much money the government makes off these business cards.
They get money from the permits needed by the logging company to get the trees. And they get some money from the truck drivers as they have to be licensed and registered to drive. They get money from the fuel to put in their trucks. They get money from the cigarettes that the truck drivers smoke while they drive.
The government takes another cut from the paper mills that employ workers. They take another cut from each employees paycheck. They take another cut from the business card company that takes my order and prints the cards. They take a cut from the shipping company.
Then they take a cut from the check I receive from my client, when I have to pay taxes.
And somehow, the government is in debt and needs to raise taxes?
