That's not how it works.
They don't pay tax on crack
@Graylan | gray00 I'm getting very close to blocking you and I'd prefer not to do that.
The store owner wants 1.10, not 1.00.
They surely don't pay tax on pussy
Or moonshine
Or Corp billions.
@Paradox But the price of the candy bar is $1. He demands the additional 10 cents because he is collecting that for the gov't.
The only people paying taxes still are the suckers.
The sheeple.
Yes, he demands it.
We all suffer.
Taxes until you revoke your citizenship . Or die.
For him to give you the candy bar, you must give him what he demands.
@Paradox But he is not demanding it for himself. Nor will he deposit that 10 cents into his account. It goes into a gov't account.
Ok? Irrelevant.
@Paradox You damn well you are just spewing shite at this point
Lmao
He always does that
@Khanclansith He's fine. We're having fun.
Talking to himself
Fuckin epic troll
It's clear, I am correct.
You are a clone
That's the only fact.
Possibly.
:D
@Paradox You may pay your taxes out of generosity. I do not. I don't object to paying my taxes but I do so because the gov't has the authority to use force against me should I choose not to.
I pay taxes because it's necessary on some of the products I buy. Otherwise the stores won't let me buy the products. However, online is a reasonable way of evading this, though I hear that's going to be an issue soon enough.
And I will repeat my original statement, I don't care about drug addicts who do not require public assistance but I do about the ones that do because that public assistance is in part taken from me by force.
well that's not the statement and claim I was disagreeing with.
I know it wasn't. You didn't like my use of the term "force" when applied to the collection of taxes. But on a fundamental level that is what gov'ts are. They are the entities which we grant the exclusive use of force in order to compel the actions of the citizens. One of those actions is to pay taxes.
Sure, government do not exist without force.
but you were also wrong ot say taxes are property taken by the government by force.
Because only some are.
all taxes are taken under threat of force
@EndangeredProdigy Yeah, I didn't realize that was such a controversial concept.
@Paradox Explain something if you will. You said that the gov't uses force or the threat of it to compel you to pay your payroll taxes but not sales taxes. What is the difference?
Income tax.
Yes.
