      Same as how I’m paying into social security I’ll never collect. Same as how inflation punished me for saving and cut the value of the currency almost in half.

          That was the covid spending, the inflation reduction act, the constant wars. Literally the one thing both sides agreed on.

            Taxes pay for nothing. Taxes are an anti-inflationary device. Please read up on modern economic theory.
