GoogleLM generated podcast. This article argues that using the phrase "taxpayer money" is harmful because it perpetuates a myth that only certain groups of people contribute to society, particularly wealthy, white, and male individuals. The author contends that the phrase reinforces the idea that taxation is theft, and that government spending is somehow stealing from “taxpayers” rather than utilising public money for the benefit of everyone.
