You seem to miss the point...
I stated 'donate' and 'volunteer' extra funds... essentially taxing themselves with their funds to fortify their support.
When it comes time to pay taxes - add your donation (just like the 'do you want to add $2 to presidential election campaign fund').
IDGAF what they do with their money. I dont want my taxes being used for it.
Do you get it now?
You didn't state it that way, you said if 'they want to spend their tax dollars for Ukraine'. There is no difference between their tax dollars and your tax dollars. Now, if you want to say "people who want to pay for the Ukraine war should pass the hat around IN ADDITION to the US Tax code", I'd say yeah knock yourself out throwing money at it if you want. But most people don't want to put their money where their mouth is separately from the taxes they pay.
Read post #30
No, I'm not wrong. Read Post #28, that's where you said "they can use their tax dollars, not mine". That's the original post I replied to. Then you said 'they can check a box'. Well, you didn't explain the meaning of that, it could mean 'send my tax dollars to Ukraine', not 'I'll donate extra to Ukraine'. As I said before I was stating that tax dollars make little difference where they originate from, in response to POST 28.
Everything I stated is there for you to read...
You can cherry pick and take meaning out of context to suit your position if that makes you feel better - but it still makes you wrong.
