By comparison, in 1945, the tax bite in an 8-hour day was 1 hour and 59 minutes, according to the Tax Foundation. President Bush claims that no citizen should pay more than a third of their income in taxes. We think even that much is shameful. The number one goal of this rally is to send a message to politicians that our hard earned money is not the inherent property of the U.S. government. The Taxpayers Rally is sponsored in conjunction with the Chittenden County Libertarians, a newly formed group dedicated to promoting and fostering a network of libertarian-minded Vermonters in Chittenden County.
Libertarians believe in small government, lower taxes, and greater personal responsibility.
The Rally is co-sponsored by Citizens for Property Rights.
