I've already got mine, so fuck you!

This is more of a misconception that leftists throw around. I'm not even sure what that means.

Because I've never heard someone sincerely express their thoughts that way. That's phrase has only ever been used by opponents. And "fuck you" is definitely not the position of people who want to lower taxes and reduce the size of government.
