No. Not like that.
When you plant your dope on federal land, you are not costing me any incremental expense.
The article you posted makes the point that the poorly paid Walmart workers COST the tax payers a ton. That is an incremental cost to ME. And taxes are more heavily drawn on the more highly paid.
I ask you Atticus, isn't the real point of your article that we should have more tax breaks for the rich so that we can be more fairly treated as we continue to cover theses costs of the poor?
