    Trump owns the government, all the taxes you’re paying go into his pockets and pockets of his friends. Especially after DOGE went through the offices.

      I can see that. I’d hope I could offset it by actually dumping my personal funds into working class programs and offer direct relief, but I know it’s a stupid thought exercise. The reality is that I’ve been in tech for years and have always actively avoided FAANG companies, and any and all paths that lead to corporate or management.

          You fool. You pay taxes on stock gains once they’re sold. You can write off donations… YOU are the one that would end up enriching the government with your money…
