If you resold Taylor Swift Eras Tour tickets, the IRS is watching — A new rule from the IRS is punishing those who resold tickets for more than $600 in profit with a tax penalty::A new rule from the IRS is punishing those who resold tickets for more than $600 in profit with a tax penalty.

Exactly and what you're saying is absolutely verifiably accurate so you're justified in what you are saying. I hope you vote in the correct direction to see these changes. Defending public services and cutting taxes for the rich does not benefit you.

Ideally you would have support to bridge the gap. Personally I'd aim to be in the position that I get less from the government than I provide, which is honestly a tall order when you factor in the inner workings of properly ran country.

I would rather pay higher taxes than cut services people need to survive. I don't want to cut benefits to anyone (except maybe corporations getting subsidized). I just think the tax burden should be shifted to those that have the cash to spare.
