I'm not bitter towards taxes or death. I also don't associate self worth with income. My primary wish would be that lots of folks out there weren't suffering or angry. There are countries leading the way on this and unfortunately, I just don't think we're the one right now. We've got some debts to pay both monetarily and metaphysically. I'm still learning from others and now that we're getting older, I'm particularly looking for those that are doing it in old age. But it's a workday and I'm still on the clock, so let me get back at it so I can pay my bills now that I've solved the world's ills.

+26/03/28 - I have a couple follow up thoughts on this I wanted to add primarily because my buddy via text thread insisted that 'beamers' ( bimmers [BMWs] ) aren't allowed at the NO Kings protest. When I wrote earlier in the essay that I'm lucky to have lived on 'both sides of the coin', I was emphasizing that I've also spent years driving a ten year old Toyota Tercel working several menial jobs. I strongly believe that what drives a lot of the anger, discontent, and just plain out psychosis about money is that everything you see is constantly emphasizing the value of it while the vast majority of folks live in the below the meager averages. I think the actual solution is partially for folks to change their perceptions of value while also leveling the playing field for labor because I'm keenly aware of the inequalities around the world. My primary point here was that my level headed attitude about taxes and money is what gives me a unique perspective that I'm pretty sure I'd hold onto no matter what vehicle I'm driving because I'd be ok under a higher tax rate with a better quality of life. And to my angry friend who's upset at the mr. gold toilet running the show, I'd like to add that I'm also working through the weekend again to keep up on deadlines while still managing to get some yard work done.
