We give up a quarter of our wealth to taxes, and the government refuses to protect us, and glorifies people to preach violence against us.

Lol, the 'Trumplican' response to anything since march has been sit back and watch the country burn.

Monitoring the situation lol. You literally have big tech platforms completely wiping out even your more benign Trump supporters on their platforms. Like openly censoring people, wiping them off the platform, giving no justification whatsoever, you wake up and BOOM your account dissappeared. This is undoubtedly one of the top, if not the top issue right now and it's crickets from the GOP and the administration. Not a single thing in the platform to address this. If you're silenced your arguments go unheard.

The federal response has been very weak.

That would be your local government, and you have every right to overthrow it...but don't blame it on the administration which is offering help.

Hence why we need Law and Order and Christian guided Morality. The Social Contract is nothing without a Civil society. Hence why inner cities are the first to fall.

A quarter?

You lose a third just on the income end. Then you pay property, school, SALT, and sales taxes. You're keeping less than half.

We also pay taxes for public schools and roads and the Democrats are closing the schools and ignoring their paramilitary groups closing the roads. This is why no one should ever listen to a Democrat when it comes to what government should or shouldn't do because they don't even understand the basic reasons for why government exists: protection and roads. It this ridiculousness gets normalized, we're one step away from gangs of thieves demanding a toll on roads they think they own.

Yes, I say this til I'm blue in the face and even half the retards here dont get it. What is the purpose of government other than to secure life, liberty, and property?? Every level all the way up to POTUS has basically said "Nah".

Social contract between state and people never meant shit: it’s why the founders said our rights were god given. God is the truth and immutable. Hopefully these riots red pill people for a generation or two.

Shit, they've already taken almost a third of my earnings in income tax alone so far this year. After sales and property tax I'll be lucky if I keep half.

Taxation is theft.

This is honestly what pisses me off the most.

They take so many taxes and do pretty much nothing in return for me.

I don't have kids in public schools, I have never used 911, I don't need any state handouts, I certainly am not one to rely upon Medicare/social security (I save 40% of my paycheck) etc etc.

Now they're trying to take away the police as well. Fuck it, give me my taxes back.

For me, the tipping point was section 8. Take our hard earned money, and just give it to layabouts, because.

And now they can live right in your nice neighborhood, because. Fuck you.
