Most people do understand. This isn’t an awareness problem, it’s a power problem. Namely that the capitalist class has the power and the working class doesn’t[1][2].
There's also the racism. "I don't want my tax dollars paying for no {racial slur} seeing a doctor!"
And the misogyny. "MY tax dollars shouldn't pay for some {sexist slur} to {misunderstanding of sexual healthcare}"
Which I guess are both power problems, too.
Those are mostly fake problems to keep the working class fighting amongst themselves, to keep them in a state of false consciousness.
I am sorry but i live in a country which is maybe not perfect, but which one is??? I see my taxes in action. Maybe not perfect in the way you imply, heck even as i would like. But corruption is not rempant where i live. It IS possible ;)
