Leave the $$$ in my pocket. Tax for what you need with perhaps a small cushion for a rainy day... but don't over tax me repeatedly because you are afraid of having to raise taxes when revenues drop. I don't mind a tax increase if its justified and the taxes we give now are spent prudently.
Many in this forum decry the return of surplus dollars to citizens as a waste.

Most of those same people insist we have severely underfunded education, health care, and infrastructure.

Sadly, nobody can remember where the last 80 billion went. What about the next 80 billion?
