They'll notice that they benefit from taxation so they'll be happier with a higher tax economy and see that tax cuts hurt them more than help them.

That's definitely also true, but republicans genuinely want everyone to hate taxation as well, so their interests very much align with the companies that want to fleece you.
Lots of countries have pay as you earn schemes where your income tax is deducted but your employer and sent to the government and you don't have to even lift a finger, likewise the price on the item at the shop, by law, includes tax and it's completely seamless for you. Republicans will never like such schemes because they want taxation to be hated by all so that they'll go along with tax cuts that primarily benefit such folks.
If government was done well, people might be happy paying their taxes, and that's the last thing republicans want.
This is great, but republicans are gonna hate it. They want everyone to hate taxes with a passion, so they make it difficult, time consuming and expensive to pay your taxes, and make government services as bad as possible so even poorer people who don't pay much tax feel they get a bad deal out of taxation.
If ordinary people found it easy and convenient to pay taxes they might notice that they get more out of government than they put in and that rich people are bearing more of the cost than they are. If they thought that, they might support tax increases or things that horrify republicans like medicaid for all.
They locked up the suffragettes for protesting too, back before women had the vote.
We were only a leader in cutting emissions because we were so badly reliant on coal fired power stations and have moved away from that. We still do a lot worse than France for example, who we beat in percentage reduction terms, but we still emit much worse than they do!
You say that because you commit crimes of indecency against confectionary and you like to think of yourself as immune to radicalisation. Don't kid yourself. Come back to all that is right and good before it's too late for you.
It's symptomatic. Symptomatic of the abandonment of all that is proper and decent. Would our great grandparents have eaten candy like this? Would they have celebrated their rebellious ways so boldly? No, they'd have been ashamed. Ashamed of their wicked rule breaking. Rule breaking just for the sake of it. Rule breaking, not for mercy, not in exceptional circumstances, not out of desperation or having no other options, but role breaking just to show off how little respect they have in their hearts.
So yes, yes, people are eating bad candy so incorrectly that you can TELL society is on the point OF COLLAPSE.
This is indicative of a terrible malaise in education, in parenting, in intergenerational transfer of values, in respect and in good manners. No wonder the far right are on the rise, that Naziism is again celebrated. These edgelords will be the first to join the SS, just to shamelessly show off how wicked they are. Have we learned nothing? Are we so quick to repeat history's darkest mistakes?
Well, nothing we didn't already know and fail to apply, anyway.
It's better for the planet too.
Well, spirit of something, but whatever it is it isn't 'holy'.
