Andy FrisellaShow intro voiceover by host Andy Frisella

• Frisella claims taxation is designed to keep people struggling so they are less likely to revolt.

  “They're taxing us because they want people to struggle their entire lives because when people are more consumed with having to survive, that makes them far less likely to revolt”

• Frisella argues that an elderly man working to pay his wife's medical bills shows the failure of the American dream.
