Can I just stop paying taxes? I’m really running out of things I want my tax dollars to go to.

Can I just donate my taxes straight to USAID and forget the rest of it?

I wish.

There are many wonderful contradictions in teaching. Yesterday I found myself defending Donald Trump to my elementary students who were all complaining that he cancelled school busses and they were going to be required to walk to school every day. Not yet kids.
