wholesome redditors being glad to pay taxes to help each other out

Reblogging because I keep having to have this convo with idiots who love to harp about “but their taxes are so high”. Bitch, look at everything they get, tho. Their taxes are doing what the fuck they’re supposed to do which is take care of the citezenry. Our taxes are subsidising some rich fucks waterfront vacation home while we die of curable illnesses literally shut the fuck up.

There’s so many more but seriously. The system needs to be changed to allow people to rest. As it stands they expect us to work till we drop dead with the retirement age being removed.
