America in a nutshell

[DatBoiHawk]

America ain't a country of "culture" like how you'd think of Japan, Mexico, Switzerland, China, etc. are.

Rather, America is basically a tax zone with borders.

They don't want you to leave and really make it out the rat race because they need to stay and tax 40% of your salary every single year and tax every single transaction.

Think of how much people paid in taxes for 20+ years: year after year of sacrifice and hard-earned dollars. Now when everything shut down and their lives were in shambles, after all that tax money they put into the system, the governments spots them with 2 checks for $1k?! Let's also not forget how "crappy" of a product: still crappy traffic system, law enforcement, etc. our tax dollars are "buying".



Like a reply in that thread: you know how much money a single $1 generates after a decade of taxing it?

Why you think they want a bunch of immigrants to come over? Give them opportunities, so they can start taxing them.

Why you think things like capital gains taxes exist?

Oh, you think they want you to "make it" so you can go to another country and retire and they can't tax you anymore?

If we could all get on one page and just not pay federal taxes for one year to show these mfs we not playing

It definitely feels like 2008. Back then we had to struggle to get a single job, now unless you have an advanced skill you need two just to make it unless you have a working spouse/roommates. The Feds trying to push rates up to curb unemployment so Management and Corporates Ego is about to blow up again.

Thankfully my main job is WFH, but I do the Gig-Economy on the side to build savings and its getting worse with everybody and their mama on these apps accepting low offers even though gas prices are up 50% in one year. At that point you're probably not even breaking even.

Biden too busy sending money to Ukraine to care. Florida getting hit the hardest with COL adjustments but Ron Desantis too busy getting ready for 2024.

Amazon Flex huh? I haven’t worked in 3 weeks because of gas prices and they’re offerings the same shytty ass rates. 81 dollars for 4.5 hrs when it’s gonna take Atleast 30-40 for gas to do the route that’s less than 10 dollars an hour and these idiots are still doing that shyt smh

Already happening. There's some organic pasta sauce I would always buy that I cannot get in the store anymore. Certain stuff stopped being stocked 2 years ago. They want this to happen. These evil people (under the influence of evil spirits) want to control everything.

Buy enough food for yourself for the next year at least.

Buy heirloom seeds for a home garden.

Get a solar power source. Get a water distiller.

That's the minimum.

Unless you're going to be foolish and sell out to the government, then you get what you get.

Your niche pasta not being in stock is not a sign of a global food shortage.

Being prepared for the worst case scenario is good, though

It goes along exactly with what he said. They mandated that a lot of food be grown oranically. That's the first items running out of stock. What do you think will happen when everything else runs out of stock? Are you thinking?

I'm confused as to what she's confused about. Do other countries not have a sales and income tax?

The Bahamas​

The Bahamas does not impose income tax on its residents, regardless of where they earn their income. The government receives most of its revenue from its tourism and offshore industries.

Bahrain​

Located on the Persian Gulf, Bahrain is a tax-free nation that receives much of its wealth and government revenues from its oil discovery. Those looking to establish residency in a tax-free country should know that citizenship in Bahrain is very difficult, but permanent residency requires that you be retired, invest $135,000 in property, or invest $270,000 in a Bahraini company.

Brunei​

Brunei does not have an income tax, however, Brunei is not necessarily a hub for economic freedom. Permanent residency and citizenship are out of the question for those looking to establish themselves in a tax-free country, as you would need to gain the approval of the Sultan.

Cayman Islands​

Like the Bahamas, tourism in the Cayman Islands is enough to provide the government with enough revenue without taxing its residents. Those looking to seek permanent residency in the tax-free Cayman Islands, one must make $145,000 per year and invest at least $600,000 in real estate and wait eight years for permanent residency.

Kuwait​

Kuwait’s large oil industry allows its residents to not pay income taxes. Permanent residency in Kuwait is generally difficult because it typically requires that individuals have a relative in the country or former employment.

Maldives​

The Maldives has a strong tourism industry that gives the island country little reason to levy an income tax on its people. Establishing citizenship or permanent residency is essentially impossible since the country doesn’t have a program for foreigners to become permanent residents. If it did, one would need to be a Sunni Muslim.

Monaco​

Monaco is one of the easier tax-free countries to establish citizenship in. Those looking to become residents will typically need to spend several million dollars. Because the zero income tax tends to attract very wealthy people, Monaco is likely to remain tax-free for the foreseeable future.

Nauru​

While Nauru does not have any income tax, it is not a good destination for those looking to live tax-free. Nauru’s economy is struggling and being tax-free is the country’s government’s last effort to keep its economy afloat.

Oman​

Like other tax-free countries in the Middle East, Oman’s government has no need to levy income tax on its residents because of its oil and gas industry. Expats looking to move to Oman would usually need a job or family living there to do so easily.

Qatar​

Similar to its Persian Gulf neighbors, Qatar does not levy an income tax thanks to the wealth it accumulates from its oil industry. Qatar has a diverse and modern economy and is relatively peaceful, making it a great location for those looking to avoid taxes; however, it is still difficult to establish residency.

Saint Kitts and Nevis​

Saint Kitts and Nevis is a tax-free country that, unlike many others, is easy to establish a residency at. To gain citizenship by investment, the price is far lower than in other nations s well. One can receive a passport and permanent residence for a $150,000 donation to its hurricane relief fund.

Somalia​

Although Somalia does not have income taxes, it is not recommended that one tries to live here for tax-free purposes. Somalia is a dangerous nation burdened by civil war and terrorism, as well as political instability.

United Arab Emirates​

With a very strong and free economy provided by a wealthy oil industry, the United Arab Emirates does not levy an income tax on its residents. Unlike other Gulf countries, establishing residency is a little easier in the UAE through visa policies.

Vanuatu​

Vanuatu, like other island nations, relies on tourism to fund its government, allowing its citizens to enjoy no income tax. It is generally easy and relatively less expensive to get a passport and residency in Vanuatu, as its citizenship by investment program is one of the easiest in the world.

Western Sahara​

Western Sahara is also an income tax-free country, however, it a disputed territory. Western Sahara does not have income from natural resources or a tourist industry, and its territorial disputes are likely the reason that they do not levy a tax.

Man...what are you speaking about bruh..damn near everything in the supermarket is gmo non organic.

Nah, breh. This is not what you think it is.

But time will make everything clear.

How much time until it's clear?

The tweet at the beginning of the thread doesn't really make any sense. He's saying that he leaves his home super early, but in the next post he's saying "you want people to go back into the office...?" Is he doing it or not?

I'm more interested in the ROFL_Guy angle to this thread. What's this guy's age range? How much does he have at the end of the week? Is he only doing sports betting, or are there other games mixed in there as well? Doesn't he pay taxes? Does he keep most of his money in a bank or in cash?

Feel free to make a separate thread. I'm sure enough of us will read it.
