What a person's pocketbook represents to him is survival. Those of us who are in this business usually make enough to lose recognition of the fact, but for most people, a tax increase means having to go without. For computer types, and for the rest of those who may be categorized as 'labor aristocracy', taxes are a nuisance. For the people who don't have what they need, tax is the difference between an empty cupboard and an empty belly.
