Mother-in-law works at one. Under educated, under paid, not enough help, everyone is forced to go there and sees it as a watse of their time so the "guv'ment" can "steal" your hard earned money. At least in thd US.

Are roads magic things that appear for free out of thin air?

Y'all don't have a road tree? It's right next to the money tree. And they're both dead, cause no one remembered to water them.

My state has some of the highest taxes and the second worst roads in the country. The roads should be better for the money i pay in taxes.

But really I'm talking about wasted tax money. We all know the military blows money for fun with money we could've used to build an American autobahn.

What state? What taxes are you talking about? Do you live in a state with hard frost cycles?
