    Income taxation abolition would be incredibly popular among right wing morons and idk why the left doesn't capitalize on that but hey Im not a money nerd maybe I'm naive in just thinking the govt doesn't need to penalize individuals to fund itself when it controls the fucking currency.

        It would also just like simplify things for people. It's hard to tell how much I'm really improving my situation getting another $2/hr when it's like, oh, now those dollars get taxed more. And my rent is still gonna go up, and the cost of my food, etc. Yay

        I want a $2 pay increase to mean you're actually taking all that home and not require some fucking calculus to figure out what it actually means for you

      With a progressive tax system, the majority of income tax paid in aggregate, is by the very rich, and that's even after they have avoided a lot of it through tax schemes.

      Abolishing income tax would reward the wealthy.

        Okay then no income tax if you make <100k a year idk i don't want to argue about this. I don't want every fucking dollar I negotiate for myself to be worth less and less when it's so fucking hard
