Sorry, but I don't believe in taxing the middle class the way they do in Europe. And that's before the ridiculous property taxes and business-related taxes.

Good thing they suspended the gas tax or the owners would really be ****ed.

The bakery owner is curious as to how this happened, as all of his appliances are electric. Some people think it was a car bomb or drone strike, but I haven't heard any realistic reason as to why someone would target that bakery, or evidence to support such a theory.

The way I post news links is efficient. We've had this conversation. If you don't know how the internet works, then so be it.

TFW you're repeatedly told that you don't know how the internet works, so everyone else is the idiot.

where as your boy Yang actually does want to tax the middle class and poor with a VATS very similar to some European countries

Yeah but if you actually read a little deeper, he's also discussed a Financial Transaction Tax as an alternative what you just mentioned.

Not one single person on this site has praised you for your link aesthetics. Are there people from elsewhere who actually have? Or are you just congratulating yourself on an accomplishment you decided without any input?
