    "The government has been starved of funds. We're at about the lowest tax collection [rate] as a share of national income in our modern history.

    We can't even pay for the most basic public services right now. We can't keep our schools functioning. We can't keep our roads intact. Taxes are the price you pay for civilization, and if you don't pay taxes, you don't get civilization." --Jeffery Sachs, 40:03

    Be mindful of Rule 9/Circumventing profanity filter, in future thread titles.

    Also, I am moving this to 'Political Opinion and Beliefs' with a redirect.
