The issue is how to distribute said money. Which is always going to cause conflict.

Easy fix tbh would be to allow the citizenry to decide what percent their money goes to what

 

[Butters]

Not really. That would just be something else to be divided and argue over.

Like some people don't think we should spend ANYTHING on defense.

That's what makes "Communism" as we historically know it inherently flawed lol.

I always say it's an idea where it sounds good on paper, but it doesn't work in practice. And yes, extremes of both are dangerous, and some balance is key. But as someone who had to take a fair bit of political philosophy classes, I always looked at communism as just a lens to be critical. See the flaws of society and then I look towards realistic solutions. Understand it, but don't see it as gospel

Some people don't think we should send ANY money overseas.

Why’d you all distract me with all this crazy ass and fascinating convos. It’s 11 pm dammit. Way too late.

It would however be up to the hands of the person, not the state. And generally, individuals wouldn't give a shit where other people divy up their own money.

I don't think it is a good idea.

Although I think we pay far too much in taxes as it is.

The income tax was never meant to be a permanent thing to begin with.
