I don't want to puncture your self-righteous rage - everyone should have a hobby of some sort - but if you're an American, only something like six to eight percent of the federal tax you pay goes to food stamps, energy assistance, child care, other income security.
Maybe you should consider being outraged at where the majority of the money you hand over to the IRS actually goes: more than half of the US federal budget is spent on the military. Perhaps something would be done about that if fewer Americans believed they were God's gift to the world and you have the right to stomp around the globe imposing your will on everyone else.
I don't mind being called "self-Righteous". I have a TON of flaws but I take FULL RESPONSIBILITY for mistakes that I make. I don't try and blame anyone in sight.
Obese people riding around on scooters really annoys me..
