    The most boomer attitude ever. I don’t want to pay taxes that support the community because I don’t have kids.

    Fuck you and your entitlement. You are not an island and can’t just decide to pay for whatever services you deem necessary. How do you think roads are maintained and fire stations funded? Or the police?

    You want to go back to private fire departments who serve only the rich who pay them instead of public services?

      It’s funny to me because I previously agreed with them 100% - when I was seven. Around age eight I could see the value in investing in communities. I was and am not an unusually intelligent person, yet I figured it out. What’s their excuse?
