    Likewise for Ch*msky:

    You can get a good measure of the sentiment of the masses towards the government based on how they feel when it comes to paying their taxes.

    There are other, better people who have talked about why they support things like free education and welfare programs for early childhood development when they themselves do not have any children. Turns out that a well educated, well supported society makes the whole country safer, happier, more productive, and all round better for everyone in it regardless of whether or not they are receiving those benefits directly themselves.

    I swear some of these people have a mentality so backwards that it’s not even on the level of the Europeans living in the era of cholera who demanded better sanitation infrastructure. Though I guess that’s obvious since American infrastructure is crumbling, septic tanks are a common feature over there, and they made a fucking folk hero out of a guy who went on a rampage because he was told multiple times over years that he couldn’t dispose of his shit into the local groundwater supply because it was not Europe in the middle ages where you can just dump your shit in the streets.

      Remembering the un report from 2016 about the quality of life in the us that detailed conditions usually only seen in third world states suffering from civil war.
      The comments were full of people saying their state was worse.

      Wasn’t the killdozer guy also forbidden from improving his wastewater condition? I remember something about him offering to pay to fix the water system at his place, and it was denied.

        No, the neighbora offered to pay to get it fixed up. He wanted the city to pay for his sewage hookup while he was pumping his shit into a concrete mixer he buried in the yard.

          I hear so many different things about the killdozer guy. I wish I had an article with actual sources instead of just 500 cracked top ten lists about him

            Not as good as an article, but still informative and well-researched.
