So, I work hard, my ass off, 5 days a week, 11 months a year, and I pay 1/3 or 1/4th of it so that pidophiles dont pay taxes.
Income tax, VAT, property selling tax are all theft. There is no logic behind it.
The taxes that should exist is: Wealth tax, nature tax for the businesses that damage nature, and that is it. And no tax should be over 5%.
Wealth tax: 0%, income tax: 30% this is unacceptable. You either pay no taxes or you pay everything as tax.
I actually calculated it, and yearly 2.5% of wealth tax should be enough. And also, countries have a lot of resources, that also can help their budget, like mines or rented lands that are owned by government etc.
If we taxed wealth, not work, we could buy our houses way easier, we could buy land way easier, we could find a job way easier because we are not gonna pay income and vat, businesses will be able to hire people freely, and everybody can own a business easily. Nowadays, if you are poor it is so hard to create a business. You have a lot of expenses.
Yes, That’s what I am talking about. Income tax, is taxation of the poor
This is right-wing bullshit to excuse billionnaires getting richer and richer. Proper income tax is progressive and spares the proletariat.
What you want is to maximalise the net disposable income, with universal, accessible, excellent, and free: education, health- and childcare for all throughout life, a rehabilitative judicial system, decent and affordable housing, and excellent public transit with preservation of nature.
For that, we must remove all billionnaires. Trade unions must cooperate with the armed labourers and disarm the elite.
Voodoo economics has never worked. So then we must tax land, inheritance, wealth, income, and dividend. And for all these, we must make it equal for all (in that there’s one comprehensive system for this);
• exemption for the most impoverished and marginalised
• a small contribution by the more prosperous
• multimillionnaires and billionnaires pay it all.
and additionally, tax haven & capital flight must be punished and combatted. We must also combat the toxic idea of one’s worth being dependent on money: it must be on how much one helps society. we must control the narrative, and that must be positive for the liberation of all workers.
edit: oh, and it’s a minor thing, but you could also make the tax be one that’s pre-deducted, rather than that you have to pay. It’s a psychological thing where people rather fear losing what they have, than perceive the benefits gained by their contributions.
