Loving the herd life
I think once these petty tyrants get addicted to living off the Tax Payer’s Teat they are unable to digest anything other than Red Tape Spagetti….once they hit that point it is useless to talk to them. I went in to the Tax office and asked for the papers to fill out for disability discount on Land Tax. I got the blank stare and the flat answer: “There is no discount. Everybody pays their fair share”. And she turned back to the phone. I showed her the print out on the State and Federal Web Site directing me to come to HER office and pick up SPECIFIC FORMS # XYZ and she got a nasty “I HATE YOU!” Look, walked over to a cubby where the forms were kept, quickly sorted out the three forms That I specified and brought them over to me. Then said “I don’t think they use those forms anymore…everyone just pays their taxes when the state sends you the amount. I smiled and left with the papers. Her hatred of anyone that asks her to DO HER JOB was palpable. She was nasty and condescending. When I fill out the papers and have to take them back in I’ve asked my lawyer to go with me to ensure they will get turned in properly and not round filed.This will hit small producers hard. Why can't these non farmer politicians keep their grubby fingers OFF our farms? GRRRRRR..........
These people actually cannot care less if you die….as long as your taxes get paid and their paycheck cashes at the bank. They have no connection to our reality or to what it is like to work an honest day’s work and actually PRODUCE something.
Frankly, I would love to be there next Christmas when she looks at lamb prices as sees that they have tripled in one year but her Gov/t check only went up 4.6%….maybe I wouldn’t….I know how I feel when that happens.
