All the idiots who don't understand how money works lol.
Hey morons, your taxes don't pay for anything.
Taxes are used to control inflation, government spending comes from new money which they loan from the central bank.
Taxes get destroyed.
But you wouldn't expect these people to understand how money works they think that capitalism is freedom.
They literally think being a debt slave makes them free lol

Meanwhile in the Europe— like, say, the Czech Republic — taxes do pay for stuff. Like education, healthcare, roads, you know… basic bullshit.
Our government doesn’t “print new money” to pay teachers, it literally collects taxes and allocates them through the budget.
But sure, tell us more..
Modern Monetary Theory might apply to massive economies like the US, but it’s definitely not how things work everywhere.
Plebs only wish their taxes went to such a noble cause as roads.
