We learned as children that the Founding Fathers railed against the unfairness of “taxation without representation”, yet the subject of “representation without taxation” is never mentioned today. We have a growing underclass that votes itself increasing amounts of our income; it is ridiculous.
This is always the way the Monarchy tries to quell the anger of the Mob.
Works until the money runs out then the Mob offs the Monarchy and chaos ensues.
Rinse, Repeat.
