"Do you know how much of my year's work goes to the government?" demanded angry worker George W. Spirit. "Too much! Government spending has gotten way out of control. It needs big cuts in welfare, health, and education. But leave those subsidies to business alone. We need them to create jobs."
[Accept]
"It's not the AMOUNT of tax, it's where the burden falls," says student activist Chastity Trax. "And at the moment, far too much of the burden is falling on the poor. People on high incomes still have more money than people on low incomes. I don't think I need to say anything more than that."

"I don't object to the amount of tax, I object to where it's being spent," says social reformer Beth Trax. "I'd like to see everyone have a choice as to where their dollars go every time they fill out a tax return. Everyone would feel a lot better about opening their wallets if they had a say as to where the money went. I think you'd see a lot more public money going to education and a lot less to business."
