AUTO REBLOGStop believing the RepubliKKKans LIES and start searching for the TRUTH.CHOOSE REALITY OVER HATRED. exactly This is why I can never understand the US argument against publicly funded services, and calling it socialism… like, I could understand if Americans didn’t pay taxes, but they do… they pay taxes and get nothing for it. The rest of us pay taxes, and directly benefit from it. So like… if you have a group of people and everyone puts in $2, except one person who doesn’t have $2, but then you use the money to buy pizza for the whole group, and share it with the one who didn’t have any money, that’s socialism.But if you have a group of people and everyone puts in $2 and then one person takes it and buys a gun, while everyone else goes and buys their own food and the one who didn’t have any money just starves, that’s freedom? Because like… change pizza to healthcare and a gun to a super mega fighter jet or something, and that’s what the US tax system looks like to me… -- source link
