didn't catch all he was saying, but the word "taxpayer" stuck out.

"Every time I hear 'taxpayer' it seems to be some rightwing bullshit."

"It is rightwing, but it's not bullshit."

The Mercedes dealership in the next town over is having its best year ever but every town out here is having a budget crisis. Now I read Camden, in the wealthiest state in the country (per capita) is closing its library system because the wealthiest state in the country can't come up with a lousy million bucks.

I'm wondering if it really was the right thing holding back and not pounding his smug face into the pavement.
