Political statement over wrongful taxation in Pittsburgh

[snow15145]

A statement I submitted to a local newpaper but I think it applies to 
many:

You know that no one ever thinks about the circumstance at hand until 
it directly affects them in their pocket. People who don't drink 
aren't likely to be concerned over this (absurd drink tax) matter 
anymore than they are over a person who is banned or penalized from 
smoking a cigarette. 

What these standby/unconcerned persons do not realize is that with 
every verdict that is introduced, sets a precedent to lead `them' 
forward in their quest to govern more specific sights
like
in the 
future
the very internet that collects us all to talk freely!!!

Very
Very!!! Soon this will be a place that we have to pay taxes on 
because we didn't fight the small taxation, or the one we didn't care 
enough about because it didn't affect us personally! 
  
The government Today aren't looking for the small fish, they just 
want to catch them so they can use them as bait (precedent) to get 
the bigger ones!!!!!!!!!!
