Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : For anti-government ideologues, it's important that people not have good experiences with the government.
57% : But if tax evasion is a secretive act, tax resistance is civil disobedience, a public, political act.
53% : So it is with tax resistance.
45% : Taxes are collected from the hoi polloi.
41% : In fact, what the megalomaniacal multibillionaire is destroying is everything - minus the policing functions, of course - that we pay taxes for, including such frivolous agendas as food inspection, flood mitigation and Medicare.
33% : Trump's non-billionaire followers appear thrilled that Elon Musk and his so-called "department of government efficiency" are burning down the government.
29% : "Imagine if Trump hadn't met and talked with Elon Musk that all this progress on efficiency may not be taking place or at such a fast pace needed before the midterms," comments holy666 on a Fox News story about the mass layoffs of federal employees.
