Default Taxes and Fees

We have to pressure the Dom Govt. To lower the Taxes and fees. In this tough economic times. It is a crime to put this burden on our family.
Lower the Taxes now !!!!!

Unfortunately, once a government becomes dependent on a particular source of revenue, it is very difficult if not impossible for it to wean itself off of it, despite the fact that the long term economic growth will more than mitigate any temporary loss in revenue.

DR DEPART $20
DR AIRPORT $30
