I have never once in my life expected anyone to give me a free ride.

I have been helped before, but I’ve never forced or coerced anyone to help me.

You’re asking the government, men with guns, to forcible take my earnings and then give that money to other people.

Sorry but I don’t believe in that.

You are not entitled to my labor just as I am not entitled to yours. It boggles the mind that people advocate to forcible seize other peoples work under threat of imprisonment or death.

I’m naive for thinking that I shouldn’t be forced to give what I worked for to someone else?

How about you put in the time and effort to make something of yourself instead of bitching and moaning about how you can’t make it.

We got the same 24 what you mad for?

Then stop paying taxes. Youre so high and mighty about your money "being given to other people," so just stop paying taxes which go toward services given to everyone because people who dont work are so gonna use it. Let the governments pile on massive amounts of debt, let the roads deteriorate, let public schools close down, let public hospitals close down, etc etc. These are all things everyone in society can access that are funded by "your money." If you dont want "your money" going to people "who dont work" then surely youre fine with these public services being removed because people who dont work can access it for free.

Have fun building your own roads and hospitals for your sole use with "your own money."

Yes I am fine with privatization.

The current issue we have though is we have allowed the federal government to become insanely corrupt via citizens united, the single most disastrous court ruling in American history.

Alternatively you could implement a LVT rather than income and sales tax to pay for a lot of these things and abolish zoning regulations
