    You are part of why Elon Musk et al can exist.

    You do not know your enemy when you see or hear them.

      Elon Musk is not my enemy. The fact that billionaires got a massive pile of money doesn’ylt affect me in the slightest.

      You know what does affect me? Corrupt government officials that embezzle public funds, spend it on stupid projects that only enrich their friends and families. That affects me.

      You really think that giving the government access to even more money will help you? Hell no. It’s going to end up in the same hands as now, just more of it.

      Taxes are a borderline infinite money source, and if you don’t have to worry about s source drying up you start wasting it, which is exactly what’s happening in many countries now.
