If my tax rate went up, but everyone was guaranteed to pay the same exact rate, I would support it. No more out’s, no more credits, no more deductions. Just a simple equations, “Your Income” x “Tax Rate” = “What you owe” and the tax rate is the same no matter who you are or what you make.
I am more than willing because I know that tax rate won’t last for long as every last incumbent is voted out of office until the tax rates are finally lowered for everyone. You’re much less willing to support a tax when it’s your money the government is taking.

So evidently last week when I went to visit Joe and Ry I should have just used cash to pay for dinner at the Kirkland Red Robin. It was at least positive I used my credit card instead of my debit card.
You see some piss ant that is too lazy to work decided to make a complete copy of my card and go on a shopping spree today. They started in North Bend evidently at a gas station and drove to Ephrata where they proceeded to hit up Wal-Mart and Rite-Aid racking up a 500 dollar bill at which point Bank of America’s fraud division suspended the card and called me.
You see I rarely use that card and usually only for one off purchases who’s costs are immediately paid off by the next bill. So I talk to the fraud department they fully closed the card, asked me if I knew anyone who could be using it. I informed them I’m staring at my card right now, it’s been in my wallet and I’ve used it only once recently, last Tuesday to be exact, at the Kirkland Red Robin. They back charged all the fraudulent charges, closed the card, and I should have a replacement next week.
So I get the inconvenience of being out of my card for a week, which is no big deal, I have an emergency fund for a reason. It is still annoying though. It is annoying because some ass-hat felt that I needed to redistribute my wealth to him. Except in the end he didn’t end up stealing from me, he ended up stealing from those companies. I’m sure this little piss-ant feels that he was just robbing from the rich to give to himself, never mind that the costs of his theft actually gets distributed into higher costs for everyone else.
So yeah, I’m in need of some recoil therapy. Luckily I can blow some stuff up this weekend with Joe and Sunday I’ll be able to shoot the stages I’ve designed. It should be fun, but damn I’m still since I’ve got to redo many of my online recurring transactions now. At least I have a list of which placed I need to go fix.
At least I got my money back, because this would definitely be me if I got a bead on the parties responsible if I didn’t.
