Are taxpayers "freeloaders"?

[rogue06]

They are according to California governor and three time candidate for the Democratic nomination for U.S. President, Edmund G. "Jerry" Brown Jr.

Responding to the news that Californians wanting to repeal California's recently passed "road-improvement plan" -- a $52 billion tax hike -- are moving to recall one of the state legislators, Josh Newman, who supported it, Brown fumed that "The freeloaders — I’ve had enough of them."

Brown has done little but raise taxes since becoming governor back in 2011 and if anyone has the temerity to object he brands them as being a freeloader.

As Kira Davis, so aptly noted in an article at RedState.com:

Source: Gov. Jerry Brown Calls California Taxpayers “Freeloaders”

The 1,000,000 citizens in Los Angeles county alone who collect food stamps provided by taxpayers are not freeloaders. The millions of illegal immigrants being harbored in California’s sanctuary cities to the cost of taxpayers are not freeloaders. Illegal immigrants being provided “free” legal help by the state on the backs of taxpayers are not freeloaders. The bloodsuckers in the Sacramento legislature who get paid $178 a day in per diem funds on top of their bloated salaries just for walking in the door to their job every day are not freeloaders.

No, you – the burdened, law-abiding taxpayer are the freeloader for simply asking the government of California be more fiscally responsible with the money they already have instead of stealing more of your money without your consent to pay for programs that are already funded but have been raided for pet projects and personal enrichment.

The good news is that his contempt for those footing the bills for all his tax and spend programs has really fired them up much in the same way Hillary's remark about a "basket of deplorables" did during the 2016 election in spite of a news black out on the story by the MSM.

If I didn't know any better, I would think he was being sarcastic.
