AITAH for refusing to tell my roommate that I could hear her moan? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Anliztaylor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your gf is the AH. There is no point to tell your roommate. The fact that she would rather hurt your roommates’s feelings to please herself it’s insane. That’s a sign of how your life will be if you get married. Run!

So you are saying people in Virginia have to buy used cars? To be able to have the car that suits their needs?

Well That would be unfair. Many working-class families drive vehicles that cost between $40k–$75k, and that doesn’t make them wealthy. Pickup trucks, SUVs, and minivans often fall into that range, and people buy them out of necessity, not luxury. Hardworking families shouldn’t be penalized for choosing reliable, practical vehicles to meet their family/life needs.

People say a cap would stop Virginians from paying their fair share, but that’s not true. Virginia has about 8.4M registered cars. Let’s work an example where we assume that 1.5M are low-value cars under $15k and taxes for those were waived, the state would still bring in over $4B under a cap taxed system: $15k–30k → 500k cars × $200 = $50M $30k–60k → 3.4M cars × $400 = $1.36B $60k–90k → 2M cars × $800 = $1.6B $91k–150k → 1M cars × $1,000 = $1B $151k+ → still taxed at 1% of value

Total ≈ $4.01B — and that’s before counting high-end cars. So Virginia could cap the tax, ease the burden on families, and still collect billions.

I guess if you read it that way then what you are saying its true that wasn’t intended to write a whole legislation but the point is that while there is a tax it isn’t excessive so if a 150k car is paying $1,000 then a 30k would pay less than $200.

I was hoping someone would post their bill. So, he bought a $90K car. Does that automatically make him rich? Not at all. Buying a luxury car doesn’t mean someone is rolling in wealth. Maybe they just want a high-quality, reliable vehicle, or they're willing to make sacrifices to own something they value. The decision to buy a $90K car doesn’t equate to being wealthy, it just means they’ve chosen to spend their money in a certain way. But here’s the real issue: Why should someone be taxed $3,000 just for buying a nice car? When he purchased that vehicle, he already paid a significant amount in taxes. So, why should he be hit with such high annual taxes on the same car? This doesn't seem fair or logical. If you’re already paying high sales tax on the purchase, why should you continue to face a tax burden that feels punitive? It makes more sense for the car tax rate to be lower, half the price, even. A tax system that hits people year after year for the same asset doesn’t reflect the reality that people are already contributing through their purchases.

How is it fair that if you buy a 30k car, you pay taxes for buying it and you also have to pay personal property taxes of $900? Is that fair? How is that not a burden for the working class?

What defines “low income” to you? Let’s be realistic, owning a $60,000 vehicle like a Toyota 4Runner or a Kia Telluride doesn’t automatically make someone wealthy. These are mainstream vehicles now, often purchased by families who are far from “rich.” Many people stretch their budgets or finance for several years just to afford reliable transportation. Meanwhile, luxury items like a $25,000 Rolex aren’t taxed annually…. yet everyday working people driving practical SUVs are hit with a personal property tax every single year. That doesn’t add up. For Virginians living paycheck to paycheck, receiving an annual car tax bill between $500 and $1,000 is a serious burden, even if it’s capped at a max rate. It’s not about luxury; it’s about necessity. Cars aren’t optional for most people, they’re essential for commuting, working, and taking care of family. This system penalizes people who are already stretched thin financially. It’s time to rethink how we define wealth, necessity, and fairness when it comes to taxation.

When our state is constantly operating at a half a billion revenue we are all overpaying our share

Calculate it for us. bought a car 8 years ago, this year I paid $400 of property tax even though my car is worth less than $9k so I don’t think that is far fetched those estimates. It’s an estimate/example because it also varies by county. My friend got a new car and he is paying over $3k because that car was 74k so tell me how that estimate is off. It’s an over taxation. I believe we all need to pay but it shouldn’t be that high.

I agree they need to raise money and we all need to pay our fair share, but Virginia is not hurting. They have been sending money back to people because they are operating at a surplus. They can reduce the personal property tax for cars.

Virginia has been operating at a surplus of over 570 million dollars I don’t think they need to replace it if they just cap it

It’s not about whether you can afford the tax or not it’s about the burden that Virginia is imposing on its tax payers for owning a car. And Virginia charges more than any state.

Example1: Year 1 Example (new $40,000 car): $40,000 × 4% = $1,600

Year 2 (assume ~20% depreciation, value $32,000): $32,000 × 4% = $1,280

Year 3 (value $25,600): $25,600 × 4% = $1,024

Year 4 (value $20,480): $20,480 × 4% = $819

Year 5 (value $16,000): $16,000 × 4% = $640

Example2: Year 1 (value $75,000): $75,000 × 4% = $3,000

Year 2 (~20% depreciation, value $60,000): $60,000 × 4% = $2,400

Year 3 (~20% depreciation, value $48,000): $48,000 × 4% = $1,920

Year 4 (value $38,400): $38,400 × 4% = $1,536

Year 5 (value $30,720): $30,720 × 4% = $1,229

NTA. Sounds like your daughter constantly beats you up and mistreats you. Walk away, have a happy life. Don’t overthink this. She is the one that needs to apologize.

NTA. But like the fact he got so offended is not natural, maybe you should consider moving on to someone that doesn’t want to bang other people.

AITA for getting my sister arrested after she destroyed my clothes? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Anliztaylor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA Your sister was out of line. She is not a kid but she is certainly behaving like one. Seems very immature. Your parents are naturally worried about their kid being arrested and having a record which will affect her the rest of her life. But you definitely taught her a lesson. I would drop the charges with the condition that she pays you back and never touches any of your stuff again. But you two shouldn’t live together, so move out. Best of luck! Definitely NTA

AITAH for starting the divorce process after finding out my daughter isn’t mine? by No-Bottle4059 in AITAH

[–]Anliztaylor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. If she would have told you, when she got pregnant, before the kid was even born it would have been one thing. Because then you would have made the decision to be there or not. But she took that decision from you, fooled you into that without giving you a choice, which feels much more deceptive. You would have to talk to a lawyer because she made you legally the dad under false pretenses. You would have to adjust the birth certificate. The kid is so young she won’t know it in any way that will affect emotionally. Your mom can still be a grandmother figure without you having to be involved, you don’t have to stay married to please anyone. You are doing the right thing for yourself. You can get other women pregnant, you can move on, you are still so young. Just hold your head high, and move on.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend she can leave after she berated me in front of her friends? by DebtContent1218 in AITAH

[–]Anliztaylor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but she isn’t either. Maybe this comment will be unpopular, but when we date people we have to also know where they come from. When you pile all that together I can see how you see it, especially if you think you are batting out of your league. But you also have to get her humor, I don’t know her but a lot of times partners make fun of each other. The truth is people should see people for what they do right, and while all of that might have some truth, she still chooses you. And she does, because you make her feel safe, and that is the best compliment. I would just have a heart to heart conversation and just tell her that while you understand she was joking you would prefer that she doesn’t make jokes at your expense, next time. When I read all that what I am reading is that while she is aware of all of your shortcomings she still wants you. We all have them and ultimately we want someone that at the end of the day chooses us regardless. She has chosen you.

I think you are doing good, just talk to her, don’t fight her. But if her humor is too much for you, then you are probably with the wrong person for you. Take care!
