All the people who've NEVER gotten to "do Thanksgiving" or "do Christmas"

*Other* people not being able to do holidays wasn't a problem worth raising your taxes by 5%, or staying in with that family you love so much instead of going out shopping on Black Friday or to see a movie Christmas Day, or doing anything at all

God fuck you
God fuck you
The City of Omelas runs on leaving the one kid inside the closet because they're supposed to be there so they're used to it and that's okay
If you proposed "Hey how about we all take turns in the closet one day at a time, so it's fair" the city would collapse in a week
