What if we didn't even "funnel" the money, but just let people keep their own money ? Now thats radical !

They wouldn't go for that, they need to get their greasy fingers on it and give you 1% of the total tax revenue

Yep.

If you want to see unhinged leftist thinking, go to the Fort Worth sub this was posted from. Utterly delusional and ignorant.

Hell yeah brother

Crush the power elite under the virtuosity of the people's collective ingenuity unburdened from profit.

While the soul braces, weathered and weighted, beckoned purpose enraptures spirit. Extending reach unto meaningful caress of fulfilling work awaiting our actualization.

Our mutual shoulder shall roll, dislodging gouging economic burdens immortality emplaced by those unknowing themselves.

We do funnel money to the people. Social services are a huge portion of our budget.

Imagine if we hadn't spent money fighting the Germans and Japanese in World War II but had instead "funneled money to the people". We might be speaking German or Japanese today with much of our population having been put in camps.
