I expected this book to piss me off. I hate paying taxes, I hate people and corporations who pay an unfair low taxes even more. This book dives into the subjects of hidden retail tax breaks, tax supported entertainment and gambling subsidies.
The amounts of corruption and waste is staggering and overwhelming. Maybe it's to the point where the millions and billions get so large .... they just become words and not real money. And this book makes me feel more apathetic than passionate.
On some level, I understand that something needs to change. On the other hand, it's not fun being the boy who points out the emperor has no clothes when everyone is in a party with that naked emperor.
