What does that even mean?
Probably something like they're Hard Workers™©® who have to ~~not~~ pay taxes that feed the "lazy parasite poors"
It also means: I'm letting you know that I'm an awful piece of shit.
A lot of the republicans I know honestly believe there's a huge swath of people on wellfare who are totally healthy and could work if they wanted to, but instead they take government handouts and make a whole bunch of money doing nothing by convincing people they're needy. I always ask them to point to even one of these supposed people, but they always change the subject.
It’s hard for the top 1% to feel good about themselves on account of their clear status as society’s leaches (except they’re not vital parts of the ecosystem like real leeches are).
In order to get around these Hard Feelings they have to step into a fantasy narrative where they aren’t necessarily bad, certainly not harmful, maybe it’s the rest of the world that’s bad come to think of it, maybe they really did earn this, finders keepers right? Who says there is any objective reality to right and wrong? It’s all optics right? Why should the golden rule apply to everyone?!
He's whining about having to pay a tiny fraction of a fraction of his wealth to support "the poors".
