it fails to BUDGE me..........

There are mainly two reasons why my blog has remained dormant:
1. I am too lazy to blog.
2. None of the issues that interest the world, interest me. And the only issue that interests me and about which I have some knowledge, would certainly not be of much interest to you i.e. "the person writing the blog".
; )

What got me writing today ,are these lines by the Beatels. They are truly hilarious.

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the streets
If you try to sit, I’ll tax the seat
If you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet

Every year, the last two days of February, I m deprived of a basic necessity i.e. tee-vee. My parents would snatch the remote and shoo us away to watch a bunch of morons banging their fists on tables, rejoicing for some stupid reasons. (if you are really slow on uptake ,then I was talking about the budget). The budget never interested me, doesn’t interest me now either, n wont interest me till I m forced to share the tax burden n my hard –earned (read: negotiated) monthly allowance is taxed.

When I was kid I came up with two questions, which till date I think were pretty intelligent : ) .Of course you may not share my views (like my parents don’t n tell me they are pretty dumb questions and now that I m studying economics, I should be ashamed of asking such silly questions) bah!!
1. Why does the government snatch our money? Why doesn’t it ever think of doing some work itself and earning its own money???
2. Why does the govt. tax the people who earn and work instead of the people who do not do any work?? It’s like the people who work and contribute to the country are being penalized n those who don’t and are being lazy are being given unemployment insurance. What crap is this???

If you have any answers ,which you think can satisfy me .I WANT THEM.

And if, just like most people, you want to tell me that they are dumb questions.Dont bother.i will never agree..:-D
