i didnt even talk to that grandmother
Okay when your ugly nephews die you can explain on your death bed that muktuk in the inner city needs it more than they do
if im gonna get free money, at least tax it moron
Well no one can be in as advantageous a situation as you,
EXACTLY
SO TAX ME
You tard,
The inheritance people get allows them to pay off debts, buy a car, etc
To penalize that inheritance with a tax directly affects the least well off
you know we dont have to tax small inheritances either
we can only tax larger ones if we really wanted to
One of the reasons they stick to this mentality is the same reason they so disproportionately gamble - buying lottery tickets and such. They have the mentality that they are going to get rich somehow
So they don't want their imaginary future riches taxed
it's really disgusting actually
yea its kinda amusing actually
Democrats buy more lottery tickets on average
like theyre arguing on behalf of people's interests *which dont align with theirs*
The people who buy the most lottery tickets and gamble the most are also 18-29 year olds
People who dont know a whole lot about economics
The one that promises them the economic rainbow and burys future generations with debt
$21 trillion and counting, both parties are to blame, but one party is promising the free shit
The people that gamble the most are the people who go into finance actually
so, they do know something about economics 😉
And you're talking to someone who has rabbit holed every school of economics, so its not a valid retort here. In fact, i would turn that back onto you and claim the reason you dont support redistributive policies is because *you havent widened the scope of your economic knowledge to realise that neoclassical/austrian economics is based on garbage premises and false logic*
>but one party is promising the free shit
two parties are -> the fact republicans wont tax inheritance means theyre promising you will get your free shit
I suppose ill just ask my financial planner if they bought any scratch and sniff tickets then,
republicans love giving free shit to corporations too
so its a false dichotomy
gambling isnt just lotto tickets mate
its casino games
putting money on derivatives at 20x+ leverage
theres no "formula" for stock prices *which is actually accurate to any real degree*, so when you put money into stocks, *youre gambling on your intuition/study on that company and/or the economy*
theres a reason hedge funds underperform most of the time
"People assume risk when they consult with financial planners at a bank, it's just like a casino game",
Thats beside the point though
its THE Point
people in the financial industry are the biggest of the gamblers
^Very debatable
However
