to paraphrase Kristofferson's words

freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose

spend more on good stuff, and you have more freedom with stuff

biggest rightwing lie is spend less gets the people more. Impossible.

i.e. school
they take away

to get everyone more, you need to spend money making schools better

i.e. snow removal
nobody will do it for free, and when the roads don't move, nothing gets done
freedom to go about your normal life means pay the taxes so the roads are clear for industry to move forward
