Taxes are going up, small business are being tax to provide more funding for MTA, so where is all that money going? It is time to take back our country, before it is too late! Perhaps this is only happening in New York and we need a new Mayor?

Can Someone Out There Tell Us What Is Going On?

            A few years ago, when the economy was thriving, and people were living the good life, things made sense. Being at war with Iraq, and Afghanistan may have not made any sense, but neither did the terrorist act upon New York, Pennsylvania and Washington D.C.

            There are no taxes on clothing, but some counties are adding county tax on almost everything, and if the government should bring the clothing tax back some people will be paying almost 12 percent in taxes. Something has to change; the government is now made it clear that they don’t have to notify us of changes in laws, in tax hikes or any other taxes for that matter. How is it that one person has the power to make so many changes, that if in the past these changes were made without letting the American People know, they would have stormed the White House.

            You may wonder what this is all about, but did you know that the President wants each states government to cut corners, raise taxes and provide more money to the Federal Government. The Federal Government will be in total control, and the people of this great nation will have to accept the stupidity of its leaders.

            So now, I will explain why I am so pissed off and angry. Today I went to Game Stop to make a purchase, and the sales tax was 8.875; in the past the Great State of New York, new about the tax hike, this time, if they informed us it was in a 1 x 1 article in the center of the Trenton Newspaper. This is wrong this is taxation without representation.

            Small business owners have been hit with a MTA tax, Mass Transit Tax; depending on the size of their small business. I bet no one out their saw that coming, probably many small business owners in New York, did not even know it; until the got that “GOD” AWFUL notice in the mail. It states how much they owe, that they will have to pay electronically by printing out their quarterly statement.

Turn back time to 1807, plans for the White House then, when the Consitution meant something!

            In a recession, how freaking fair is that, bridge tolls went up, Mass Transit fees went up, taxes went up, and new taxes were introduced; all with very little if any notifications to those of us who put these people into their positions

            As a New York I am appalled and I plan to seek out the next Tea Party, and any other rally that needs my attendance, because if the government is not going to listen to us; then our constitution was written in vain.

    Your article reflects the truth. We can protest but it will all fall on deaf ears.

    I definitely agree with your views, I may say politics is getting uglier as time flies.
