I would call 'privileged' anyone who gets to 'keep' the money he/she has earned, in the present economy. Many of us end up spending all that we have, if not more, on things which need, or think we need. Canada is not a socialist country. The gov't does not decide the cost of food, rent, and other necessities. I'm not saying that it should. But a lot of people who have MORE than they need keeping demand STILL MORE. This is NOT helpful to those who have LESS. (James 5:1, 5) 'Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries which are coming upon you.' 'You have lived luxuriously and lived a life of wanton pleasure. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.' The PM's expensive vacation has NOTHING to do with taxation. It has EVERYTHING to do with the FALSE sense of entitlement which rich folks sometimes have. No one enjoys paying taxes, but even the Bible speaks of their necessity. If you want to live in a society without police protection, without courts of criminal justice, without public education, social services, or coordinating agencies of any kind------------go ahead and forget about paying taxes. I expect we'd agree however, that the current federal gov't has a habit of OVERSPENDING public money.

[@babynugget706]

Not to be mean but this is the norm… history has always been riddled with corruption and 99% of history is people dying of starvation. It was only in the last 100 years with technology that food has become a non problem for the vast majority of people in first world countries. In the old days 99% of the population starved, we’re literal peasants, and were subjugated by the ruling class. This age of democracy we all partake in is actually the anomaly in history, it has allowed so many families to climb out of poverty. But it may soon crumble due to people who want to destroy the democratic system. I would not be surprised in the future that the world reverts back to the norm, which is subjugation by a ruling class. It’s already been happening, and eventually it’ll get much worse.
