   Since when do you decide what tax money is used for?   
      
   Taxpayers are already paying for whatever the government wants and they   
   will keep doing that.

   As I said, it doesn't matter if *some* people don't believe that anything   
   is happening; the decisions are ultimately not theirs to make.   
      
   And if, for whatever reason, the world truly gets worse for everyone,   
   everywhere, then one must fight against it and make it so that it sucks   
   less.

   Of course it's true.

   Most certainly.
