Well that’s a lot of false equivalence going on, good luck with that.

False equivalence how.

These are all paid for by my tax.

Aged care, military and school funding all benefit society as a whole.

Paying for hookers does not benefit society as a whole and therefore it is not comparable, meaning you have made an argument of false equivalence.

How exactly, does aged care benefit society in a way that providing the most basic of human comforts to people on NDIS does not? I'd love to hear your logic here.

Aged care has economic benefits as fewer working age people are required to care for the elderly.

This is very basic stuff.

Blowjobs don’t contribute anything to the economy.
