And how many of these jobs are real full-time jobs instead of people looking for a second or third job as a Uber driver and how many of them are government jobs, which of course just suck people dry and are unproductive because they are paid by theft called taxes
Taxes are not theft.
So people demanding a ransome from your paycheck to fund atrosities around the world is not theft.
The things that I rely on my taxes for are way smaller than the things my taxes are spent on. For example, why is my tax money being spent on weapons to kill people halfway across the world when no Americans are being threatened? We could eliminate somewhere around 3-4ths of the military industrial complex right now and not have any issues and get some of that money back. I consider myself a libertarian, not a republican. Big difference is Republicans still want to tell you how you can live.
Profit is theft.
Economic rent is theft.
