Genuine question, where does this money go? Nothing is improving.

This is such an obviously untrue statement. Come on. Nothing is improving? I'm sure that it varies wildly by state and who's running the state, but in my state it seems like there's constantly roads, highways, bridges, etc being repaved, rebuilt, rerouted, or otherwise improved in some way. I've seen a few new schools pop up in my town and they've been working on renovating some of the older ones.

Student loans, school lunches, public transportation, and healthcare are outside the scope of the original post that I was addressing.

I don't know what bubble you live in, but it certainly sounds good. I'll just move next to you to get some of that American dream y'all got there 😂
