Taxation is theft

[alesiox94]

There's lots of infrastructure projects underway in India.

That controversial statue provided thousands of construction jobs while it was being built and is a major tourist attraction that is making money, so it wasn't a waste of money to build.

Name a few? i also thought and voted the bullet train , blackmoney recovery ,etc but nothing came into reality.whats hard to open hospitals in every Member of parliament constituency ? and run multispeciality hospital in every district problem solved once the people are healthy and educated they can bring more money to the country ,instead why wasting on something else

A hospital is useless if it doesn't have doctors and nurses to hire.

Well the American govt handed out student loans which inflated college fees, loans that won't go away with bankruptcy, and now Biden is writing that off with tax payer money.

 

[theRevolt]

Governments have billions and trillions to spend on useless things like statues and keeping the money idle why taxing the poor ? why cant they reduce useless spending if i buy a macbook ,its around $1200 the real cost apple sells would be $900 but $300 would be the tax ,why i have to pay tax if apple is selling the product the chip supplier ,cardbox supplier and everyone pays tax ,the one who is buying also pays tax.

Well guess what, if you are not American , from the Philippines or Eritrea, you can move to a lower tax country.
Now, everyone complains and logically tries to avoid taxes keep this in mind:
- do you drive? Well can you build your own roads? I mean taxes find that mostly
- did you go to school? Have children you'd like to send there?
- if your apartment/house burns do you want to be able to call fire rescue?

And so on...now, but of course there is tons of waste etc but you just can't have it all. Gotta pick the lesser of two evil and that is you need taxes for a country to run.
I mean you could move to Monaco and pay 0% but yeah guess what they are super selective and there is a reason they can do that...

bullet train project started in 2020, suppose to finish by 2023, but it will take more time.
What is "something else"?

Buy a sailboat, go stateless on International waters, experience the fun of not needing anything .. Will that be a better situation for you maybe, but don´t come and claim some help when you fall overboard if you can not pay the rescue first upfront.

• First AIIMS was built in 1956
• Nothing between 1957-2003
• 2014 total 22 new AIIMS were sanctioned, right now 6 are fully functional, 16 are in different stage of construction.

Great, I love the idea of sailing/roaming around the world for free and independent, just make sure you don´t need anything from the rest of us that you can not pay for.

Thats my goal to, but not to evade taxes, just to get down to earth and enjoy life more.

There is a common misconception about monaco. It is not tax free, it is income tax free. You pay coroporation tax if you have a business, you pay vat if you buy something etc. The cost of living is obscene and inexplicably it is really fucking crowded.

If you really want to avoid tax you need to be prepared to move your money around various jurisdictions, taking advantage of their tax laws.

But unless you are earning serious money it is not really worth it.

Back to the ops point...

It is not tax that is the crime it is corruption / government waste of it.

Yes, I do know that but it was an extreme example to showcase that 0% income tax comes at a cost, be it being rich or other taxes to make up for it...

The issue here is that most are not scratching anywhere near serious money to think about loopholes and structure the rich use. It is just a fact either pay tax or move or get a really great tax lawyer, but of course that all comes at a cost.

I'd rather pay taxes than learn marketing from this toxic forum.

I think you should be happy.
The Turkish government receives 300% tax. For $ 800, the apple is sold for $ 2500.

So you joined the forum just to pass on this compliment and add on to the toxicity?
