I'm sorry that you have to pay 100% of your income in taxes just for some dude to get a blow job every other year so he doesn't kill himself.
That sucks fam.
It’s alright, the government agrees with me.
No more blowjobs on NDIS dollars.
Guess your strawman will be offing itself soon.
Lol, because that's the arbiter of truth amirite?
Now they'll have more budget for their own escorts.
Not what a strawman is, btw, but don't worry your pretty little head about it.

You haven’t refuted my argument in the slightest.
Every cent I pay in taxes that are spent on something I don’t benefit from is literally money I no longer have to improve my own quality of life.
Ah yes. Fuck everyone, I want mine.
Disgusting.
No the point was less fucking. Though I have got mine.
Lol, I love when clowns own themselves.
You’re amusing enough but I wouldn’t call you a clown.
