That's my fear as well. The last wall to topple is a straight tax on capital. Sure, they'll sell it as a tax on the uber rich just like they did with the income tax, but that threshold will drop drop drop until the middle class is

AirPrint is a must for me. I do not maintain a dedicated desk. I leave the printer on an end table in one room of the house and I work from all over the place. AirPrint allows me to print from any of my devices from anywhere inside my house
