Chris McDaniel (R-MS) vows to not pay taxes if they go toward reparations

• Vowed not to pay taxes if they increased because of reparations. "If they pass reparations, and my taxes are going up, I ain’t paying taxes. Isn't that sad? And believe me I have the greatest respect for the IRS. I fear the I-R-S. Fear! Fear. How you gonna make me pay for something that I had nothing to do with? How you gonna do that to me? I don't get it."


A lot more fun stuff here

What's with a certain part of the population always being so concerned about reparations? I have an uncle like that. He's obsessed with it. I only see him a few times a year and it comes up every single time so I'm curious if he talks about it daily.

They get free government health care, they get exemptions from many Laws other US citizens have to follow. Our tax dollars pay for that as they should, but I wonder if he feels he is being abused by that.
