^I was talking to a co-worker about why he was planning to vote for Doug Ford:
Him: "Taxation is Theft!"
Me: "Er no, taxes are needed to pay for services like welfare, education, healthcare, police, etc that you (a retail employee with a two year old kid) need but can't afford out of your own pocket."
Then he gives me this look of shocked disbelief and in a tone that screams "I can't believe how stupid you are" explains very slowly and carefully in the most condescending way: "The government prints the money. They don't need taxes. They can just print money."
Then I tried to explain how economics works, but everything I said was clearly in one ear, out the other.
