        You’re still going to have to pay taxes, in fact your taxes are probably going up next year.

        The government cutting its budget doesn’t automatically mean tax savings.

          I dunno, my gas bill has never been lower since I took a hatchet to my engine block. Please don’t ask about my uber budget.

            Unless you’re already in the top 5%, your taxes are going up.

        Yeah, you saved $3 on taxes. Great. Dismantled a whole department.

          All of us saved $3. It adds up. I am fine with government departments getting dismantled.
