But if you find that it's important enough, then you do it. You have to decide. Even when you figure you've given up a great deal to get a small amount of something, the pain is only there for a short time. It really goes away. Whatever the quandary, it leaves you.

• The government taxes you when you bring home a paycheck.
  It taxes you when you make a phone call.
  It taxes you when you turn on a light.
  It taxes you when you sell a stock.
  It taxes you when you fill your car with gas.
  It taxes you when you ride a plane.
  It taxes you when you get married.
  Then it taxes you when you die.
  This is taxual insanity and it must end.
