Re:How to have a billion dollar exit with zero capital gains... by ajsnigrutin on Tuesday May 10, 2022 @06:00AM (#31325280)
I edited my post and added the "(as in higher tax percentages)", because this is the main thing that our left-leaning parties do.

We had a really shitty government for two years now, who did only one good thing, and that was to raise the general tax deduction, making our workers get a bit more net out of their gross income, and even the unions protested, because they "cared" about te governments budgets.

Now with the government change, we expect them to scrape that (because that would mean more money for the government, and the poor (their voters) would be least affected), and the paroles they'll use go along "taxing the rich". On the other hand, as you said, if you're rich, the "progressive" tax rates make it worth it to avoid taxes by funneling money around, and we (engineers, developers, etc.) get fucked, because we earn above average (and get hit with taxes hard), but still not enough to make it worthwile to do the whole tax-avoidance (legal) thing.
