That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Corporate spending on elections has already topped $500 million this year. That's one third of the $1.58 billion in total that corporations have spent since Citizens United in 2010. Hawaii and Montana both have plans to neutralize this disastrous SCOTUS ruling. Other states must get on board.
Most Labor members are opposed to #AUKUS, but dissent was crushed. "So what lies ahead for our nation when even the most electorally secure and least conservative of the major political parties cannot brook any public discussion of one of the most divisive policies it has ever sought to implement?"
