God damn, meanwhile in Australia our top tax bracket is AUD190K (USD122K) @ 45%!
us is similarly silly. why the heck don't tax brackets scale into the millions???
You and I both know exactly why
true. I hope those rich folks can have enough kids to run everything. No slaves coming from my loins.
Good. They just bred you out of the gene pool.
damn straight. my genes or anyone elses are nothing all that special. this wierd idea of immortalizing ones genes is just stupid. I have had my space time and thats enough.
You're only here because people have been immortalizing themselves through genes for generations.
If you're not strong enough to continue on that trend, then you don't get to continue past this point.
Other people will, though, and influence the world accordingly.
sure and have which is how we got to where we are now. I completely accept and am cognizant of the accident of birth.
Ours in NZ is even worse, 180k (USD 100k) at 39% is our top tax bracket.
