They genuinely get angry when it gets funneled back into our own country’s infrastructure as opposed to war or israel

But when people just live off of them that’s when the problem starts cause you are overusing the system that was built to help you get off the system not stay in it your whole life.

The government was constructed to establish laws to govern the people and establish order in the United States. It was anti-taxation in its creation and the income tax wasn’t even established until 1913 then the Federal Reserve was created. So no. It is not literally the entire point of having a government. However, at the scale of growth in this country and now being a cog in the wheel of a global economy, yes it does take taxes to help keep things running.

But those programs never work because the people who work for them have no incentive to make them efficient

Not really. That is a small part of it but the biggest thing is regulating commerce, creating laws so people don’t go around murdering each other for fun and ensuring peoples rights

This is so stupid because no body disagrees with this. It’s when it goes to helping people that shouldn’t even be here in the first place. Or it goes to programs that help capable of having job people but just live off tax dollars.

I do think some government programs are intended to be temporary and some it’s fine to be on your whole life. For example, disability benefits are something people need their whole life.

It was anti-taxation at first and that’s why the articles of confederation failed because no state wanted to pay taxes.

No it was not anti taxation. You’re missing the whole second part of ‘without representation’ the colonists were pissed that they had no say in the decisions being made

the government was constructed to establish laws to govern small and largely disconnected communities of migrant colonists that had little reason to support a bloody war against England. understand history if you’re going to cite it.

Dig deeper than that. Why was the government created? Because the Articles of Confederation failed abysmally. So the Constitution was written to unite the states as a formal country. That very same document outlined things the treasury and who can levy taxes. In fact, it specifically states that Congress can levy taxes to provide for the general welfare.

Studies consistently show that the amount of people just mooching off the government is way lower than politicians are telling you. Most people who get benefits do work, and the benefits they get are still minuscule. No one is getting their entire life paid for by tax dollars without working a day in their lives. Except politicians themselves.

Above 81% of Somalians in Minnesota are taking welfare from the government.

What is your point? That Somali people don’t deserve food or healthcare? Are you implying that Somalians on these programs aren’t also working? What of all the Somali children these programs benefit? If you’re going to be racist, just say what you mean instead of hiding behind figures.

Are you saying there was no fraud?

It has nothing to do with the color of skin and everything to do with what kind of worldview or culture or upbringing says it is okay to do those things. Culture just so happens to develop among people in the same region, or among the lines between cultures.
