Re-read my comment. You seem to labor under the impression that I don't know how taxes work. That is not the case. I was simply pointing out that there is a difference between who provides the funds and who decides where they go.
No-one "labor[s] under the impression that [you] don't know how taxes work", they simply dismiss your comment, or downvote it, as someone who doesn't know what they are talking about, unless you are some kind of celebrity, which you are not.
