Itโs by design, and people have been brainwashed to know support the current system. For example Iโll try to explain to my brother how weโre being taxed out of prosperity and heโll insult me and say that weโre well off and people have to pay their fair share. He will then literally go out and borrow money to take a vacation, or buy basic things like furniture. Itโs completely lost on him that he lives an illusion of prosperity because heโs borrowing to achieve it. One day, probably very soon, the carpet will be pulled out from under us all and weโll realize that not only can we not afford our current lives, but weโre expected to pay heavily on what weโve borrowed.
Nothing was more fair in regards to taxation (theft) than a flat tax rate. Rich people already pay more because that is how a percentage works.
But ultimately taxation (the theft that it is) never goes to where it is supposed to go, especially the places where people insist it must go, roads and sidewalks etc.
Until you become a homeowner and learn the hard way that sidewalks, despite being city property that you have absolutely zero control over, are your responsibility to pay for. But you also can't privately contract for it, because the only way to ensure it
isn'tis down to city standards is by using their overpaid contractors who use the cheapest mix that doesn't last in your area.Then when you walk around the sidewalks, right away you notice the fresh sidewalks disintegrating, and who had to pay for that? You did.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, I'm pissed off at taxation and I'm even more pissed off that it doesn't even go to what it's supposed to.
