Greatest con ever:
- You bust your ass working
- Government takes your money (for the “roads”)
- They also take out in interest free loan from you
- They make YOU do math homework once a year under penalty of guns
- They pay you back as their favor to you
- It’s worth less because they also made up a couple trillion.
Taxation is a social mobility control mechanism disguised as a public good. Instead of people asking “why am I paying 30% rent on my existence” it’s “how do I make my neighbor pay their FAIR SHARE”
