They think their taxes are so high because of the "lazy freeloaders who wants them thar free stuffs" (which we all know is code for minorities, even though there are more whites on welfare and foodstamps). Its because the major corporations don't even pay federal taxes. In fact, there are so many loopholes that many of them get money back from the government. They don't "create jobs" with the money they save in taxes, they just keep it for themselves.
How does the government giving people health coverage, food stamps, and free education encourages a culture of irresponsibility but bailing out financial institutions because of poor business decisions and greed is totally fine? Do people have any idea how much of that bailout was used to give executives insane bonuses?
Some do abuse the welfare system and they are absolute scum, but if there's one group the government is spoiling, it's these "too big to fail" banks with their tax loopholes and lack of accountability.
