I know, I should be doing Friday cat blogging or some other shit that passes for proper blog material. Instead, I just sit here and read the bad news.

I knew you were wondering why they mug you every 15th of April, or at the pump, or at the grocery store, or via a million different excise taxes passed on to you as a consumer. Well, wonder no more.

It's "Reverse Robin Hood" - they steal from the poor and middle classes only to give it all to the top wealthiest 1%.

Happy fucking Friday!
