you usually go in debt financially from spending on things you actually use
eg: I am in debt regarding to my house, I still have a few years of loan to pay. I was in debt regarding to my car. I am in debt for the camera gear I bought on a 4 month spread.
I do not get to use 90% of the shit my taxes go to. Vast majority of it go to other people, the military, and subsidies for rich people. That’s not a debt, that’s an involutary charity.

“Hey, can we give each homeless person $2000? It’ll pull 90% of them out of poverty. Then they’ll become contributors to the tax pool!”
“No, I’d rather spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on hostile architecture and hostile police. Also we pay jails to house and feed them.”

They removed all benches from the bus stops in my town a few months ago.
It’s not like we have a homeless problem in the town. It’s a smaller town on the outskirts of a bunch of larger cities. I don’t think I ever seen one homeless person since I moved here decades ago.
Thanks for making me miserable when i’m waiting for the bus, I’m sure it was worth it you absolute cunts.

“Yes we’ve made life harder, especially for the elderly and pregnant. But you must understand we needed to impart more misery on the homeless!”
