I’m at the point of no representation without taxation. It’s crazy that <50% pay income taxes, but still have ability to elect people to Congress to give them “free” stuff. Recipe for disaster.

My issue is the 50% of households that get representation without taxation. They basically get to decide how much of MY money the government is going to give them.

I don’t think the founding fathers could have made it any clearer..
You HAVE representation. You are not guaranteed to be in the majority,.

Unfortunately this ^^^ is the truth and the problem.

Most Americans are happy with their representatives.

They just don't like the other representatives.

Congress has a much lower approval rating than individual congressmen (in their districts).

Are you saying this under the pretense that the American vote still matters or that most people are happy with $40 billion of their tax dollars being laundered overseas while inflation climbs to 8.5 percent?
