TAXPAYERS: The bill is (always) due

| June 26, 2020 1:00 AM

I read with amusement about those who want more of this or more of that (schools, parks, hand-outs, government) but not at taxpayer expense.

Don’t people understand that every penny that ANY government entity gives out is from the taxpayers, and of course with a 50-100% handling expense?

And to top it off, the government is broke (in more ways than one). So, they have to borrow the money and pay interest.

Guess what? You are the government; you are paying interest!
