    Comservatives hate taxes. They complain that the left is entitled and then bitch and moan when they have to actually pay their share for the services they use. Nothing will get them more fired up than hating on taxes even if you show them just how vile and expensive the private version is.

    “I earned that money(all by myself and at no point did I use any tax-funded infrastructure no not me not never).”

      Don’t tell them about school vouchers. They’ll never understand how that is funded.

        But that’s another way to funnel public funds into private coffers. They’re all about that. Like private prisons! Maybe there should be a prison voucher system now that I think about it. Ugg
