I support paying less tax

But I dont support dodging or evading

Flat tax is when you tax someone for having a flat chest right

or flat ass

Working class men, well, work, so they can't get fat and working class women aren't rich enough to afford implants, so of course they get taxed for being flat <:thunk:462282216467333140>

unless its the US where all the working class is fat

or believing in flat earth

Oh fucking hell. What now?

What has been deemed racist today?

bbc momentarily mixed up two black mp's in a caption

@JackH670 The argument is that you spend your initial money on the purchase basic ameneties, and then any surplus on making your life nice, meaning that taking a flat % in taxes is taxing the poor of their basic ameneties, whereas its taxing the better off of their niceties.

except that's fucking stupid

> i support paying far less tax
> and dodging/evading where possible

Do you mean "avoiding"? @system11

Yeah I can see that argument

Personally I think that personal income taxes should be fucking axed, and only companies taxed, but hey 🤷🏻‍♂️

If I had a flat tax, it'd only be imposed on people above minimum wage

What's the unintended consequences @Comando

that you lose a vast chunk of government revenue

Tbf, it's not like they're very good at using that money

Because you'd lose the overall tax income?

There's an argument that says lowering tax actually increases revenue

yeah to an extent

Maybe theres an argument to only seek tax receipts on certain transactions + corp tax

Like stock trading

So VAT?

No no

On business receipts

But this is pie in the sky

Maybe just like when money moves or transactions happen in money markets

You would have to impliment that strategy slowly.

For sure

Corporation tax should be based on how much societal good your company does

Not sure I can get on board for that

Maybe the reverse

At least partly, anyway

You get punishment taxes for violating social norms etc

As in... You get taxed less if you're doing good

Yes that's what I mean
