Meh. I like good schools and roads and fire departments.

All of those things keep getting defunded and my taxes keep going up

Stop voting for politicians who promises to do exactly those things.

Yes it's my fault even though these same politicians have gerrymandered voting maps and use death threats and harassment to ensure they run unopposed.

In deleware didn't they run a bill to let corporations vote? I have to look into this. Right now I'm in a position where I could probably leave the country. Instead I'll probably stay and help my friends who need it.

That's it. I'm not mad I pay taxes. That money goes to (mostly) good things.

I'm mad I generate surplus value for my boss. That money goes to his new car and swimming pool.
