    “Taxes are theft” bullshit grift spotted. Tapping the sign.

      Taxes themselves are not theft, but the misuse of those taxes (such as waging purposeless war, refurbishing your gifted airplane emoluments, funneling money to a family member’s private business, putting public money into crypto scams, or vandalizing public monuments) is a kind of theft.

        That’s embezzlement from the treasury, which is different than pretending that taxes going into the Treasury is theft.

      I don’t think they were talking about taxes, unless I’m mistaken. It’s obviously about wage theft, right?

      Arguably, both the red and yellow can be theft at the same time

      • DudleyMason@lemmy.ml ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        But in reality, community expenses don’t pay themselves and only whiny lolbertarian babies think that taxes to pay for those things is theft, so it is “arguable”, but making the argument says more about you than about taxes.

        Yes, one could argue that. One could also argue the world is flat. Arguing is easy.

      it’s basically a stock photo. If someone used AI to make this, they’re dumb as rocks.

      I don’t see any signs of this being slop. Am I already losing my ability to tell?

        I can never not upvote the never slop kitto, but after zooming in, I think this may actually be one of the original images that was stolen and fed to the slop machines.

        I might be wrong, maybe thia style was stolen by AI and that’s why it reminds me of it now.

        Also, it seems a bit yellow, I think.

      This meme predates slop.

    Hey I’m okay with paying forty percent tax when it helps feed, clothe and shelter the needy and funds our universal healthcare.

    source
    • Quokka@quokk.au ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I hardly think a tradie should be hitting a 40% tax bracket, let the rich pay the high rates not the struggling workers.

      source
      • Einskjaldi@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        Including property tax, sales tax, healthcare, it’s not hard to hit 40 total

        How much assistance do the rich need though so the workers should be funding most of it.

    Taxes aren’t theft. They pay for roads and other services everyone uses. Framing them as they is right wing bullshit.

    source
    • Mongostein@lemmy.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Yeah but about the slush funds and ballrooms and wars no one wants? That part sounds like theft to me.

    Ha! In Sweden it is 40 hours, and 55% stolen by the child eating pedophiles.

    source
    • ZC3rr0r@piefed.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Unless you’re in some crazy tax bracket, I’m fairly sure most Swedes don’t pay 55% income tax.

      I checked Skatteverket’s calculator and if I state that I make 1M SEK per year (104k USD) the taxation rate is 33.8%. Heck, even at 10M SEK it’s so only 50%ish.

      source
      • not@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        That’s the income tax. The employer also have to pay “Arbetsgivaravgift”. Whenever something is bought there is a 25% VAT (except food which is taxed lower). Sometimes you have to pay taxes on the price where VAT is already added.
