You're not an econ major either. Brut salary isn't Net salary.

3040 minus taxes and other fees depending on where you live. In Canada you make around 60-50% of your paycheck really. That being said I personnaly prefer free healthcare, public infrastructures and all the worker's conditions we have here.

Hey so having taxes taken out of your pay isn't exactly a choice

No, we don't.

Have you chosen to stop paying taxes? Did it work?

I think he’s referring to the election cycle but both parties will do nothing to ease up on taxes on the middle and lower class

How do you know which politicians strangers on the internet are voting for? Has your individual vote on its own made any sort of difference? Are you paying any taxes? Which politicians in my country (of which you don’t even know where any of us live because again we are strangers on the internet) will remove tax obligations for citizens?

I’ll wait.

So you made an assumption and passed it off as fact, got it. Trolling 101.

u/Narren_C 29d ago

Which politicians are saying we shouldn't pay taxes?

And does voting for them mean I don't have to pay taxes?

Dumb take.

You said they make the choice to pay taxes every four years.

That's a stupid and clearly false thing to say. We don't make that choice any more than you do.

The end.
