Taxes

[Gilfed]

I still don't understand exactly how the lowest interest rates ever is a bad thing. Obviously it's meaning is bad because the first thing the Federal bureau will try to do to promote spending, next would be printing money but no one want's inflation. For the people who are still holding a job and are going through a struggle getting their rates adjusted will saves them hundreds of thousands in the long run, the difference between a 10% loan and a 3.8% are gigantic. The economy will go back up, the same thing is happening in the US, the only reason our PPF curve didn't take so long was because we put in billions on billions into our economy. But the short term results for a fix will fuck us over in the end because where never going to be able to pay anything off.

It's a give and take. You can see at as progression as a whole or you can look at it as individual finance. Where both right, we just look at things in two different senses.

Let's just leave it at that

Because taxes go towards lots of new things which have been introduced, for example education, health and lots of other things. It's all increased in price from the time of the American Revolution and that money has to come from somewhere.

You sir, or should I say Sheeple, have been conned by the greatest fraud of all time. The IRS and the Federal Reserve.

I'm currently paying over 50% of my wages towards taxes and child support each week. I agree it's a bit excessive.

To be fair if you didn't want to pay for a kid then you shouldn't have had one. It is that simple, so it isn't really fair or relevant to complain about child support.

Insurance is something that isn't a tax and gas prices, I know they're fairly heavily taxed in the US not sure about everyone else, aren't a tax either.

You also get an extensive social safety net that includes great unemployment benefits and free healthcare as well as free college, if I remember correctly.

Which doesn't do us good trust me, support the slackers and punish the hard workers. You can potentially rake in 1.8k euro/months unemployed. Same goes with healthcare as alot of people abuse that.

Exactly. The government wants to eliminate the middle class completely, they want just the super rich and the poor. The middle class has too much power , that's why they are trying to break it apart by taxing us till we cant handle it.

Unemployment benefits only IF you've worked for a solid 20 years.
No free healthcare -> you pay it within your healthcare insurance. End of the year you still get billed (partial).

College is paid.

They spend a LOT on war's. Also £6 million funeral for Margaret thatcher in the UK? yeah, they waste our money.

 

I agree in the UK it seems excessive. But here in Scotland we get loads of free things like free University forever, free healthcare and prescriptions. A lot arguably does get wasted but I think taxes work better than paying for everything ourselves.
