What do you think property rights are? When you say "govt is using the hard workers tax dollars to..." all of that is purely at the expense of property rights. Inflation (printing trillions of dollars) is purely at the expense of property rights. Shutting down businesses during covid & imposing insane regulatory burdens at ANY time or in ANY form is purely a destruction of property rights.

And economic oppression makes people unable to move up in life & afford basic things like their own food & shelter. Which tends to increase the lack of motivation & the belief that there is no reason to even try to get ahead.

And as "rat park" demonstrates, when people feel trapped they trun to drugs & other forms of escape. But even without the economic oppression (which is very real) the standard American diet alone is addictive enough & destructive enough to cause severe mood swings, mental fog, & depression all by itself.
