I think the fear is the government will not stop at people who are rich. Federal income tax started as an attempt to tax the rich. The Illinois tollway was only put up to pay for that one toll road. In 1974. They are wasteful in their spending. Look at Chicago today…. Spending billions on illegals and is out of $$$. Saying we will have to pay more in taxes.
