Sorry, but if I giving money to what's essentially a charity cause I want to do it on my terms (like I already do for several charities) not the governments, that way I get some say about meeting my own needs rather and giving what I can actually afford instead of getting fucked by taxes and inflation and having useless government bureaucrats siphon off money for themselves.

You know what you're right, who needs social goods. Tell you what you pay for your own dental and drug plan, why not pay for your own medical insurance instead of burdening the public system, refund the money we spent to educate you, and make sure to pay for your own road and infrastructure usage while you're at it. Send a check to the police, fire dept, paramedics, and army while you're at it since I'm tired of subsidizing your safety and security.

Why should I have to pay what amounts to charity to educate people like you who clearly cannot be educated? Pay to keep people safe when they're a danger to themselves and everyone around them with their absolutely idiotic takes? Let alone your health care and infrastructure usage.
