I am an ordinary citizen, just like you. Every day, I see how state and federal taxes burden us all. It feels like extortion, a never-ending cycle of giving away our hard-earned money. But it doesn't have to be this way.

In 2019 alone, Americans paid nearly $3.5 trillion in federal taxes (Tax Policy Center). This is a staggering amount that could have been used to improve our lives directly instead of being funneled through bureaucratic channels.

State taxes are no less burdensome. In states like California and New York, residents pay up to 13.3% and 8.82% respectively in state income tax (Tax Foundation). This is on top of the federal tax we already pay!

The current system is not only financially draining but also discourages economic growth and individual prosperity. By eliminating these taxes, we can encourage entrepreneurship, increase personal savings, and stimulate economic growth.

It's time for change! Let's put an end to this financial burden that hampers our progress as individuals and as a nation! Sign this petition today to call for the abolition of state and federal taxes in the United States!
