Overheard Revisited

Whenever I hear "conservatives" whining about "how do we pay for all this stuff?" - and how providing help for regular people is going to "ruin the economy" - I just substitute "rich people's yacht money".

"How can we possibly respond to the pandemic without sacrificing rich people's yacht money?"

"Saving the environment sounds great, but what about rich people's yacht money?"

"Medicare For All would complete destroy rich people's yacht money."

"Yes, we all want good schools and broadband for everybody, but all that federal spending will cut into rich people's yacht money."
