“You could double the taxes I pay, and it’s not going to help that teacher in Queens. I promise you.”

well, in the USA this is probably true, all the money would be diverted into more military spending or tax breaks for stupid filthy rich people

which is why we need tax money being spent on the communal level. not the federal level. it's the fed gov that spends it on the military, it's the municipality that spends it on schools.

Fair enough, LOL. Just love that it's "oh I pay TONS of taxes, but asking me to pay more in taxes won't help anything."
