Taxes on water usage
Taxes on Internet

Taxes on vehicle gas
Taxes on home gas
Tolls
Taxes on interest income

Taxes on inflation hidden as cap gains

Anyone care to add any more, I am sure there are probably hundreds.
We own our home outright and I built the home. Presently appraised at $320k, cost me 180k to build, plus 16 months of my life without a paycheck.
Now the gubmint (Frank's term) is making my cash savings worthless with inflation and my home ownership worthless because they are subsidizing incompetence by irresponsible banks and borrowers.
WOW, I can hardly believe spell check corrected me on gubmint, I had two Bs in the word!
