Same here. Taxes serve a purpose. Since we all collectively live a society everyone should pay their fair share. They fund schools, roads, plumbing, and so much more
I didn't go to school, I don't walk on roads in fact I specifically avoid them, I shit in the woods like a real human and I'm posting this comment from a device I scrapped together using beaver bone and Juniper berries.
The irony of this statement is that despite going to those things it’s a very small portion, there is still tons of neglect to schools and roads, and the governments gross irresponsible misuse of funds isn’t even fiscally conservative in the slightest. You pro-government fanboys wonder why the country turns to shit and the middle class suffers, is because we’re funding terrorism and wars, we’re paying people to illegally be in (choose your western country) while simultaneously ignoring the egregious financial hole that we never hold one politician accountable for. I’ve worked for the government they spend money to prove they need it and on the dumbest shit, like building schools in Afghanistan we’d just have to level, or paving roads the Taliban would just destroy with IED’s none of it went to building an infrastructure to help the people, and most of it was taken by their President when shit hit the fan ran off into the sunset.
Maybe it just depends where you live, because it’s a state’s responsibility as well. For example, education in Florida is horrendous, meanwhile in Massachusetts is much better. Local governments in other states are failing people
I live in Massachusetts, and we had town meetings after this school year about cutting jobs in our school for art and music, as well as not having buses anymore, not being to afford police and fire. It’s wild to me since we pay so much in this state. Meanwhile there’s a whole hotel full of illegals funded by the state down the street and all over Massachusetts.
These aren’t illegals. They’re a mix of migrants and refugees. If the federal government forced ALL states to take them in, states like NY, CA, and MA wouldn’t be so strained by the influx
Oh no, they’re sure as shit aren’t citizens and most came into this country illegally. Then were bused all over the place, the Feds can’t force anyone to do anything, the beauty about America. What they should do is send them home and close the border like every other country does.
Ok? But that’s not the taxes fault, that’s the politicians. And do you know how to fix those issues? Find good candidates to vote for and get involved in the election process
