We have reached the tipping point where a majority of voters in many states will vote to spend other people’s money on themselves or programs to which they are emotionally attached.

When the productive citizens of society become a minority they will be exploited by the majority until they leave or stop producing. At some point the majority run’s out of other people’s money. At that point anarchy will reign as the recipients who are denied take what they want from their fellow recipients.

Here’s the issue, voters see trillions going to pointless wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and billions going to another pointless war on n Ukraine and get mad and vote themselves extra benefits and from their perspective, can you blame them ??

I feel exploited by Americas military-industrial complex. We have bases in more countries and continents than the Roman Empire. We give foreign aid to a third of the world But we can’t afford to fund programs for Americans at home
