    So you would tell your daughter "No dear. You are just going to have to die."

    If your house was on fire and you were trapped in the burning building would you object to the cost incurred by the firemen who pulled you out?

    Do you object to the government spending billions to keep our borders secure? If we had depended on sone ragtag group of self appointed militia with hunting rifle and shotguns we would be speaking German on the east coast and Japanese on the west.

    You never know what is going to happen and shit always happens. A very large portion of that $66 billion you talk about isn't being spent to save lives. It's being spent to give everybody $1200. $1200 isn't going to help anybody for more than a month. And the billions being "loaned" to businesses that will never be paid back. Let the airlines go bankrupt. Some rich guy will buy the planes for pennies on the dollar and start his own airline.

    You seemed to have not grasped the concept here.

    Do you think it actually costs 4 trillion to treat and deal with COVID victims? Because that is what we just spent.

    You make the most silly arguments. It’s not that anyone disputes the need for taxes, or the uses of government.


    Your arguments are like me saying, the USA is nothing without its people.


    You compare WWII to 60k people (potential) passing away from a virus...... I mean, wtf.


    Like, heart disease kills 4 times that and we spend less as a government on that.


    I dont know how else to explain it.
