Even worse, it'll be spent buying votes (Biden's student debt relieve).
Billions will be allocated for building electric chargers and almost no chargers will be built.
Billions will be allocated for connecting poor people to internet and no people will be connected.
Hundreds of millions will be spent on homeless and will result in increasing homelessness.
A public toilet will be built for $2.5 million.
McKinsey will be paid $4 million for a study telling NY that garbage bins are better than plastic garbage bags.
$11 billion will be spent on 57 miles of rail tracks.
Those are just examples of government waste I can recall from memory.
Discussing levels of taxation is just a sideshow. Sound and fury signifying nothing.
The real problem is that government grows without bounds, more of our money goes to just paying the salaries of bureaucrats and contrary to what you might expect, more bureaucrats leads to making things more difficult and costly for non-government and to just breath-taking inefficiencies and waste of money by government.
- the_real_cher 2y agoI agree that our tax money should not be going to pay for students loans. At the same time students should be allowed to bankrupt out of their loans like any other loan on the planet. Student loans are the only loan one is not able to bankrupt out of and it's literal debt slavery.
