Over the last few years, we've had a banking crisis, illegal war, polluting of the Gulf, pollution today of a river making drinking water poisonous. Plus many more examples of big business spending billions to get the Government they want. Whatever one you vote for.
Yes, we all hate paying taxes. And take for granted someone capable is watching bankers who thin Government has enough money to bail them out, and not caring because if they don't. They will put the people into debt.
That a President has a real reason to commit the US to spend trillions on invading a country to further his and his buddies commercial interests.
Thet the inspectors of oil rigs and rivers have the power and muscle to make sure the sea or rivers aren't poisoned.
That roads are repaired, violent storm damage is fixed, that levies keeping a city safe are built properly and repaired, that kids have a decentt education and don't end up in crime, that the old who have worked all their lives aren't swept aside, and that when this happens. There are people to do their best to keep us safe. While being rewarded well for protecting us.
Truth is, these guys aren't well equipped or paid. Because there aren't big bucks in it for corporate America.
And lastly. If you think mass illegal migration is something business hates. Think again. Mass migration harms everyone except the 1%. It drives down wages, raises property rental values, and puts more people onto Government subsidies than anything else. They have you by the balls, which they have no intention of letting go and some are happy about that.

If it's the sciences, it adds value to the economy. Like doctors, computer sciences, engineers, sciences etc. The Arts don't need to be subsidised. Nor Lawyers.
The conditions should be the people pass entry exams, keep high grades and not have parents who can afford to pay. This inspires those from a less privileged background to do better. Which is better than reserving the best jobs for the 1%.
