You do realize that the highways that you, along with all those same "thugs and bums", are driving on are also largely tax subsidized.


Yep. That's (literally) life in the big city. You are part of others' lives, whether you like it or not. Often that implies subsidizing their activities.

That does not, of course, mean you're not entitled to your opinions about the relative economic and social values of the things you're required to subsidize.

Threads like this always end up full of people who are absolutely convinced that there is only one truth, one valid perspective, one "right" thing to do. The irony inherent in that point of view goes completely unnoticed.
