minus-squarebreadsmasher@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up40·1 年前tell me, how can anyone decide where their taxes go?
minus-squareZorque@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1 年前Voting. It’s not direct, and it’s not simple, but it’s about as good as it gets in any kind of representative democracy.
minus-squareGBU_28@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·1 年前Dude you CAN decide where your investment dollars go.
minus-squareJumi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 年前Interesting, even more so since I’m not even American. Which country are you from that you don’t have to pay taxes? Sounds like a real dump since infrastructure won’t build itself for free.

minus-squarescbasteve7@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 年前 You don’t know where they live, or what their taxes fund or funded. Assuming they are American (which is what I’m assuming you’re assuming), the other option is prison.
minus-squarescbasteve7@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前Oh fuck, I haven’t heard a retort like that since the 11th grade. I wonder why
minus-squareGoodmorningsunshine@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 年前You don’t understand how paying mandatory taxes you don’t dictate and investing voluntarily is different?

minus-squarebungalowtill@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前so you got a pretty big mouth, how about telling us how you avoid all those taxes?
minus-squarebungalowtill@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 年前yes, but I’m not investing in it. Get the difference?
