Feel like playing with laz0rz and shit? How about using your own money to arrange for that? Don't wanna? Well, good thing you can just use shitloads of money that's been forcefully taken from people!
- noonespecial 12y agoI'd totally and completely voluntarily pay extra taxes if I knew it was going to be spent blasting junk out of orbit with giant lasers. Hell, I'd buy tickets just to watch.
- authatheist 12y agoI'm sure the people playing with lasers appreciate the sentiment, but what about the vast majority of people that, given the choice, would not finance the endeavour? If one of your friends doesn't want to pitch in to support the laser games, would you want him thrown in jail for refusing to go along with the plan, or do you accept that he's got the right to use his hard-earned dollars as he sees fit? Now apply that same reasoning to all government spending.
