minus-squaretmyakal@infosec.publinkfedilinkarrow-up65·4 months agoNothing inherently wrong with taxation. The problems are how taxes are determined, how they’re collected, and how that money is distributed.
minus-squareBanana@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up36·4 months agoExactly. Conceptually, taxation isn’t left, but the way some governments use those funds absolutely is theft. Not to mention how angry people are about taxation, but are also completely unaware that conceptually, profit is actually left of your surplus value.
minus-squareundergroundoverground@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·4 months agoI have one simple trick for people who hate taxation but turn a blind eye to corporate profits. Instead of calling it “tax” call it “government profit” because, apparently, that’s all it takes to fool them.
