Sorry where is this capitalism you speak of where I'm not taxed at all?

Where do you live? Lots of people don't pay taxes, like pensioners, homeless, and who else? But soon the IRS is hiring something like 50k new agents, some armed. I wouldn't have that job.

uk.

If pensioners buy goods it'll have 20% tax on it so eh, then you die and your estate has inheritance tax.

If you worked out how much money actually went back into the government we only make % of what we make lol. Absolute shit when people go muh capitalism is ruining everything. So much tax we may as well be communist.

I lose 25% of my wage before I get it. Then I have to lose 50% of my income on mortgage and bills. So I have 25% of my income to spend, of which another 20% is tax. Not to mention if I actually want to drive to work for the fun of it, I'm forced to pay car insurance, and road tax, and what is it now 80% fuel tax?

Lucky to have 10% of my wage a month.

And yet, MUH CAPITALISM.

I was just telling a joke that says both systems are corrupt, right now at least, so the result is the worker gets screwed no matter which system they live under. It sure sounds pretty hard over there.

Hard everywhere and anywhere at the moment. Just keep pushing day by day though and it'll be fine.
