57 seconds.

That is the average amount of time a person spent working in 1930 to pay their Federal Taxes.

Today, the typical American spends 99 days working for Uncle Sam.

99 days ---if they are very lucky !!
I'll always remember,as a very young engineer, my desire to get a foriegn assignment. Those were the days when income earned outside the U.S. of A. was tax free unless you earned in excess of a specified amount. Then came Fort Worthless Jim Wright and his best buddy LBJ, both lunatic democrats, and look where we are today !!
You can be pretty sure there is tyranny in the country when the government pleads the fifth
Amendment !!
