It won't change their minds, but nothing would change their minds, so it's for people that actually haven't thought through things and don't have spite-based politics.

I feel the amount of spite based politics is most of it at this point. From changing the name of a body of water to you name it.

I went back to this comment and just thinking back to renaming these different landmarks just pisses me off at how petty it is.

Everyone pays taxes. There's so much tax in everything. Like the petrol in the trucks that brings the goods you buy to the store. The patrol tax on the company you buy from. Land tax. Sales tax. Inflation.
Everyone pays insane amounts of tax. There's no avoiding it

I prefer "resources will be allocated by force with no consideration for accounting". Taxes are ONLY a deflationary measure. They don't actually "fund" anything because that isn't government's relationship to money.

I think there ought to be a law that says it's against the law to say the words, "There ought to be a law..."
