This just came to me as I was giving water to my vacationing neighbour’s sheeps.

I watched them and jokingly called them « Taxpayers ».

Then it hit me in the face: Take any news headline from the government. Whenever it mentions money being spent, replace the actual amount (or its estimation) by the word « taxpayer ».

E.g.: « The U.S. has donated billions in direct support for Ukraine’s government since the start of the war with Russia. »

Becomes: « The U.S. has donated taxpayers money in direct support for Ukraine’s government since the start of the war with Russia. »

Who are the taxpayers? Well these were supposed to be the ones earning money and thus able to contribute.

Who is not paying? The ill, the old, the kids and nowadays, also the parasites.

Think about it a moment: The USA government is not rich: Americans own this money.
