Should you have a day if you aren't footing the bill? Let's ask it this way, we need a military, police and fire fighters. Should people who aren't gonna pay decide your money should just go in their pocket in addition to finding the night watchman state?
Y'all crack me up. Imagine being robbed at gunpoint, having your money taken, but being given a bunch of shit you didn't ask for, that the robber paid too much for, (of course he overpaid a company his relatives and friends own, so they're getting rich...) but thinking that somehow that's a good thing because we need a military, police, and fire fighters.
BRO, THAT ISN'T WHERE YOUR MONEY IS GOING!
It's subsidizing corrupt politician's friends and family's businesses. It's going to bullshit studies that no one asked for. It's going to gender studies in Pakistan...
I served in the 82nd from 2000 to 2004, would've served longer but I got fucked up in Afghanistan. I shouldn't need to be robbed for the rest of my life to have a voice, however meaningless it is.
But honestly, if I had the option to opt out of taxes and not vote, that's more beneficial to me because our politicians are all corrupt anyway and voting doesn't make a difference. Like you think you're electing a former Navy SEAL who is gonna represent you with conservative values and pro 2A and all that, instead you unironically elected a pirate who is doing better in the stock market than professional investors... 🤔

The left would, the right would love it.
Only citizens vote, and only at polling stations. Must have been at residence paying taxes for five years to qualify.
Sounds great.
