@Deleted User did I not say one useful thing?

I wasn't the one calling you a brainlet.

@Deleted User Kaden, it's not about the money that's being forced out of me via the threat of imprisonment.

It's about being TOLD HOW exactly my personal property is supposed to be used, and having no say in the distribution of it, nor the conditions under which someone else might receive them.

Maybe you didn't notice but I actually took you seriously as far as I could.

If you can't even appreciate that then maybe I should call you a brainlet.

Doing something for the collective or the greater good is such a cop out

If I wasn't taxed so much, I would donate to charity more often

^

are donations tax deductible?

@Fitzydog which would mean you pay less taxes <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

I believe so

One of the most common reasons I find myself wishing I had more money was so that I could give it to people.

Yes, all donations to 501 charities are deductible

But Kaden won't ever understand this argument

@Fitzydog question for you, "Should religious institutions(churches, temples, etc) be taxed?"

idk, I feel like nonprofits should have no payrolls

To me, there's no difference

We're all Americans

the rich just move if you tax them too much

That's what I love about flat tax rates

You don't have to worry about how much someone else is making

yes

Yeah? That's just how economics works

I'm not jealous

Pareto principle

Why do you covet your what belongs to your neighbor?

20% get 80% of the profits

Sounds like it is

Empathy doesn't run a country.

Pareto principle is a law of nature in economics

Your child like brain is confusing empathy with jealousy

Sounds like you just want free shit and want to justify it under the guise of "empathy"

@Deleted User Please, look up the Pareto principle

you aren't empathic about how long the top x% work

or how much personal risk they put in

^

ok cunt

That's the biggest thing
