“I’m not even close … and it sort of feels like I’m trapped there.”

You and me both, buddy. I don't even know what I'm working towards anymore, because everything seems so far out of reach. I'm to the point that I don't let the gov't automatically take anything from my paycheck, so come tax time I can wait until the last minute to pay, because who knows when the revolution will happen? I'm not trying to pay taxes to some bloated bureaucracy on deaths door. I'll wait to see if it's even still around first.
