Their is a reason controlling the currency and removing money from circulation is important, I never discounted that but the federal government does not wait around to receive tax money before they decide if they have money to spend. They create new money to fund things and destroy the tax funds as they come in.

It’s not political in any way, why would the federal government need anyone’s taxes? They create the currency, they don’t depend on anyone’s taxes to do anything. If they need money they create it and it happens constantly. I’m not speaking to local taxes obviously, which are mostly responsible for the roads the original poster complained about anyway which are completely different.

Not at all, taxes come after the government spends money and is used to take money out of circulation (destroyed), they are absolutely in no way receiving that money and then using it for anything, it is received and removed from circulation. If the government needs money they make money, they do not depend on anyone to create money, they depend on taxes to appropriately remove money from circulation to control the value of the dollar and inflation.

All your taxes do is take money out of circulation.

This can’t be real, at no point could any sane person look at that and think, whelp, my job here is done.

What does it taste like?

I’m all for additional security measures but they flat out admitted to not checking individual ammunition (blanks, live, and dummie rounds), which already have visual and auditory differentiators. People didn’t take their jobs seriously and a woman is dead because of it, the change needed, regardless of anything else, is ensuring people take the fucking job seriously or everything gets halted on the spot before an accident happens.
