And yet it's always "we don't have the money for that" when it comes to fixing outdated infrastructure.
There's always millions of dollars available to rip out existing infrastructure that benefits the public. Or to install anti-homeless architecture. But never any to build affordable housing and solve homelessness.
When the public's taxpayer dollars are being handed to these corporations to actively make their lives worse, it's "creating jobs." When we ask for better sidewalks or efficiency apartments, it's "there's no money for that."
Where did our tax dollars go then, huh?
I'll give you a hint: look at any big tech company's quarterly earnings report.
