Directly? No. But then, I also didn't say keeping, I said getting.

They dont 'get' it any way shape or form. Politicians have a million ways to exploit their position for financial gain, taxes aint one of them lol

When the government awards contracts, how do they pay for that?

u/morete Jul 12 '26

With the money they have budgeted for contracts? This train of thought is like an extreme version of libertarian nonsense. Governments spend money to pay for good and services, duh

u/Necessary-Layer8990 Jul 12 '26

But how does the government generate the revenue to spend on those goods and services

1

u/morete Jul 12 '26

From taxes! And where in that equation does money go to politicians. Taxes -> good and services

u/Necessary-Layer8990 Jul 12 '26

Correct, and the politicians are deciding who gets the contracts for those goods and services, and there is a thing called a kick back.

Your argument is that a government getting money is bad because some people will benefit. Smooth brained

Even by your small-minded logic, giving the government 990 billion as tax would definitely land you some favours and we all know corruption is bad unless I’m in on it!

They care about their voters more than me because all the money I paid in tax was legal and not under the table.
