_( Potentially off-topic.  
But, hey! this might help others who feel high-taxes are a pain.  
Here goes…)_

@SpacemanSpiff very well put 👍🏽

However, none of these public observations  
that you shared in the previous post, were new to me.

So, i thought to myself,  
**why do i have a such a positive outlook about the situation we find ourselves in?? 🤔**

Here’s what i came up with -

Early on in my life, i read about **Circles of Influence/concern**.  
- That ingrained the habit of not blaming factors outside of my circle of control/influence.  
- Apparently this has enabled me to find opportunities, where others see none.

Over the years we have apparently engaged in various activities to earn.

- Scaling my activities, was limited by time (no. of hours in a day x no. days in a week)

- Apparently your activities have hit some limits to being scaled further.
