Is there corruption in the welfare system? Yeah, I'd be shocked if it wasn't. Is there corruption in the system that allows tax breaks for buyers of SuperYachts?

So, you can have homeless and starving American kids...or you can accept a certain level of corruption. THERE IS NO THIRD CHOICE.
Libraries, too. And schools. And roads, bridges, and parks. In the past, most of these were NOT free and available to the general public...even in America.
Ya know, Rap songs CAN be both: Artistic Expression, and extremely misogynistic and/or violent. I will defend their creator's "free speech"...but also not spend a penny of my money to support them.
