I actually thought about that. Then I went "naah" no society willingly pools taxes so that I can pay Netflix until I'm 90.

societies willingly pool taxes so that the elderly when retired can maintain a decent standard of living.

often the decision is to move somewhere warm and sunny or to travel but it can be to have all the streaming services and a nice little cottage in the country.

evidently someone downvoted me for the suggestion that such societies exist - gee, I wonder what their problem is.
