If I anger you, you take the internet too seriously.

I haven't look at the US numbers this year so I'll stick with hypothetical examples:

10% tax on first 20,000
15% tax on next 20,000
20% on next 20,000

So on 40K, the tax rate averages out to 12.5%
Work a lot of overtime and make 60K, average tax 15%

This is just hypothetical, the actual tax rate and break points are different.

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago and our nation was the most prosperous in the world, had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What happened???

I am still angered over the fact that I could not claim the population of my empire as dependents.

Once again I am refused!

I am told that I cannot declare my 95.5 Billion Klingon subjects on my tax return?"

I can't even right off the cost of research, colonization, ship construction or declare the ships I lost in the Cardassian wars!

What kind of nonsense is this?

I spent 6 hours on this 1040 ez form. EZ my ***.

I want to speak to a Klingon Translator immediately! Warriors should not have to fill out these things! Just give me money!
