One of the greatest ironies in America, of all places, is that politicians have the citizens cheering on the raising of taxes on themselves. How so? Well, whenever the government spends money it doesn\u2019t have, that the Federal Reserve counterfeits into existence, that\u2019s a tax. It\u2019s called inflation! The tax is paid by higher prices for the things we buy. When you go to the supermarket, remember the $6 Trillion "Covid Relief.\u201d We\u2019re still paying for that \u201crelief.\u201d When government \u201cslaps tariffs\u201d on another country, that\u2019s a tax on the American consumers! Americans have bought into the \u201cI\u2019m from government and I\u2019m here to help,\u201d line, and we\u2019re paying dearly for it.
