The above was to your earlier post.
I agree taxes do serve a purpose, to fund the community. The community should have a say where those taxes go as they are the ones paying the taxes.
If we start handing out free money? This money is not free to begin with, unless you are the FED.
We already hand out free money btw, Welfare, ODSP. You know all the immigrants coming to Canada are getting free housing and a free check, while the people who built this country get fuck all. When my father moved here it used to be he had to prove his worth, he also needed someone to take liability for him, there was no handouts. These immigrants get more money than war vets.
The only reason people conform to the norm is because they are punished otherwise.

Almost most the successful video, music celebrity, tech people (satoshi) are the least normal people you will meet. Look at the top richest people in the world list that did not cheat and are not bankers
Richard Branson
David Karp
Aretha Franklin
Joe Lewis
Mike Hudack
Do you think that being normal is what a Creator wants? Why not just make everyone the same then. I know if I was a Creator of Creators I would want them to have their own identity otherwise I would just make everyone conjoint twins/triples^10 connected to the same brain.
Anyways, smart or not, if you are paying taxes, you have a say of where the money goes. If we start taxing monkeys and gorillas they should have a say.
