I agree with this, but also the "muh tax dollars" talking point is full of flaws. We haven't even balanced the budget in almost thirty years. The government is debt spending. It's not even "your money" (whatever that would mean because greenbacks are literally state property printed by the state) because "your money" doesn't cover diddly squat.

They're printing fresh currency, and handing out bank transfers to the people at the top of the economy everyday because "your money" was handed out twice already.

Let the kids eat for free on the fucking government tab, just like you let Israel genocide for free on the government tab.

That is the most made-up exchange I've ever heard. Has this guy ever talked to a conservative about this stuff??

The person complaining wouldn't agree that kids shouldn't be hungry, they'd complain about the kid's parents not working hard enough.
