Most of us are forced to pay that trillion dollars and effectively have no choice in how it gets spent.
“Don’t give your money to the homeless! They might spend it to fund the genocide in Yemen!”
The homeless person can’t send me to jail for tax fraud.
“don’t give your money to homeless people! they’ll just spend it on drink and drugs!” they say as they spend the money on drink and drugs
I am failing to find it, but there is evidence that wealthy spend more on drugs and alcohol than the homeless.
I suspect that the wealthy spend more on EVERYTHING than the homeless.
As Steve Hughs put it “what the fuck did you think that I was going to spend it on?”
Nah, I care about how money is spent by the government. But the guy outside 7-11 can have a couple bucks. He needs it for whatever he needs it for.
Authority lets people justify anything~

That’s what you’re supposed to be voting for.

Oh really, people who claim to live in a democracy can’t choose how the government spends their taxes. That’s a bold statement.

And the fact that you have so little control over government spending should concern you a lot more than what a homeless person spends their money on. That’s precisely the point the of this post. Either people in the west live in democracies where the government passes policies in the interest of the majority or we have to accept that they live under oppressive regimes over which we have no control over.
If it is the latter then maybe people should start thinking about what is to be done instead of just shrugging and dismissing this as just a fact of life.

So many losers have confidently chanted that nothing better is possible throughout history, and yet human progress continues despite you lot. People like you just hold society back because you can’t even imagine fighting for anything better. It’s servile and pathetic.

What IS being said is that your taxes WILL pay for the military. And you have NO choice in this.
So voting doesn’t create change, because if it did then you would have a choice in this.
No politician believably platforms on lowering military spending.
When none of the politicians represent what majority of people wants then your vote doesn’t really matter does it kiddo?
I love how you see yourself as being wise and enlightened, but you’re just a loser who thinks nothing better is possible. Good luck kiddo.
