The thing is that most voters would be in favor of such a thing. Which is why those policies rarely find their way to polls. We don’t live in a direct democracy. We live in an oligarchy.
Edit: Talking about the US here.
It’s more like… Having an extra layer or two stashed at convenient locations like a chipmunk.
Cities: We expect them to get help! Just not from us. We can’t lower property values like that.

This makes me sad tbh. I’m 21, and get flashbacks of my dad yelling at me, especially when someone yells at me irl. I was scared that I’d spend my life trying to get rid of them… now I wonder if that’s even possible
Wait, that’s just slavery with extra steps!
