on a very pragmatic, practical, less conceptual level.
there are organizations, jobs, degrees that are centered around determining the worth of labor. its not an easy thing to figure out. you cant prioritize it based on morally what you think is right. its a very objective process oftentimes.
a lot of higher paying jobs are mentally laborious because mental labor at higher levels provides a lot more value than hammering nails all day.
Is it true 50% of households in the US pay 0 federal tax?
lol can you be more specific with that? I want to say the bottom 50% pays about 2.38% of the federal tax revenue. i could definitely be wrong though.
Was watching dave ramsey but i found an article about it

interestings, didnt know there was a threshold that lets you...not pay fed taxes
well right away i'm confused. 76 million people isnt 44% of the population but maybe im reading it wrong. but there are some households that i think qualify for being tax exempt
i think its usually poorer people.
good points
tax stats, laws and data are always a headache.
ahh theres a difference between federal income tax and income tax in general
Just be a communist bro

if we become full blown socialist, the best rebellion strategy could be to just become an absolute sandbag of a human being. its my right to get free stuff so i want my comrades to do the same.
Bottom 49% of workers or the population including kids and babies?
Adults
Damn, you guys have it worse than Canada
another disturbing figure is that 51% of the US population is on the government dole in some form or fashion, whether government, military, social security, or welfare.

"Guys, All people just really love their work - I say that as an independent game reviewer so why wouldn't a construction worker not do things for the greater good?"
