1. Yes I do. You don't understand the basics of public finances
2. Your point in paragraph two is nonsensical. A windfall is still income and it still matters what you do with it. Imagine you win the lottery a supposed windfall. You could fritter the money away on bad purchases like something you wouldn't use but other people would our you loaned money to people that would not pay you back or to bad business ideas just because they were your friend.
Or you could invest it wisely day in your own education or personal development, a hockey rink in the backyard for your kids to play on, our productive assets that would generate income for your family and yourself for years.
Under your sense, because the money was unexpected and not already allocated then it wouldn't matter between the two options on how to spend it.
I hope you understand the stupidity of that.
3. I understood the context of the quoted post just fine and suggest you get a better sense of it yourself before you make laughably absurd statements.
