Mayor Pete can't be blamed for your state taxes, I assume he's trying to fund federal infrastructure. So yah, the federal taxes part.
Since you post in the PSF I'm going to assume you lean left (you can correct me but I'm just playing the odds) and its interesting to me that the mantra is so often in this forum and by the left about people paying their fair share. Yet, when there is discussion of actually paying something that approximates usage of Federal resources way better than general tax rates...the response is I don't want to pay any more even though I use more.
Its not surprising, nobody really wants to pay more, but hard to think not hypocritical. Typically this is where Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are brought up and we should take from them because it's them that are not paying their fare share. Personally I dont care about those two but its more the point that...its always somebody else. Its the guy making $100k more, $200k more.
Sorry, thats overally directed at you and if my memory serves you are a thoughtful poster, but the approach struck me. Feel free to give me the middle finger along with any response.
