I guess your ridiculous caricature of government spending is a product of a failing educational system.

This is also one of the problems, that will never be fixed aslong as taxes are not enforced and people get distracted by this kind of altruist-washing (which can also be a way to dodge taxes).

> Taxes -> Uncle Sam -> Some Politician Pockets -> Dumbass projects.

The issue you highlight is not taxes per se but the political sphere, which can be solved seperately. Rejecting taxes and not acknowledging the root problem _makes you part of the problem_ and useful for the ones profiting from it.

OT: Its ridiculous, that ppl _who voted for 1 of 2 corrupt parties complain about their stolen votes_. This kind of idiocy could also be a useful product of a failed educational systems maybe combined with Murrica-first delusions.

We all want to do it that way then.. I will choose my own ways to spend the tax dollars as I see fit? Too bad we don’t live in such a society

It would be quite interesting to see what got funded, if they let us pick projects to fund while doing our taxes. It might even be a worthwhile experiment to do; let tax payers decide how to allocate, say, 10% of their taxes.

I’m a huge fan of long lasting infrastructure like schools, internet, green energy, public transport etc. this stuff always pays off for future generations.

While graft certainly exists to at least some degree, the conclusion still doesn't follow from the premise.
