[OC] Bloomberg's Campaign Expenditures compared to the GDP of the only primary he won

I already pay taxes. I pay more taxes than you and most other people. I pay taxes on 35% of my income then I live in NY so I pay both state and city taxes which are high aswell. Also since I live in NY my sales tax is higher than most of the world so I pay those taxes.

At the end of the day more than 50 percent of my income goes on taxes. That's actually the problem, we need less government regulations not more. Why should I kill myself working 80 hours a week (most weeks) and actually contribute to society when lazy bums stay home and get 50k (here in NY) free money for housing costs and welfare? As it is I already don't make much more than that, then on top of that Bernie wants to take more of my money and give it to the lazy bums so they'll have the same amount as me.

If it gets to that point then why keep working and contributing to society? Why deal with the stress when I could stay home and get the same amount of money?
