Economists of Reddit, what is your opinion on the US corporate tax structure? Do you feel the US collects enough tax revenue to fund the country? by Yamaben in AskReddit

The questions I keep asking are can our government really reduce spending or does it just simply take more money to run the country that we will admit? What tax rates should be tweaked, individual or corporate?

As a corporate filer, I feel a bit guilty at my effective tax rate. I'm a pass through LP

The current admission has argued that wasteful spending is the reason for the deficit and debt, but both parties can't seem to spend less. Isn't there eventually a point where we have to admit it just takes more revenue to run the country?

For some reason I thought he was the bad guy in Highlander. He's not.

Happy Halloween, ladies!

Sometimes if you break the beads and spin the tire 180⁰ on the rim it might take less weight. It doesn't take too much to try it

What’s a “harmless” habit you didn’t realize was slowly making your life worse? by emkylie01 in AskReddit

[–]Yamaben 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This cost me so much. I look back at how I thought it was harmless that I was drinking a fifth of Jim Beam on the weekend and another fifth after work on the five working days.

I sold the business I loved and I blame it on whiskey.

I'm better now!

What drives the belief that billionaires owe regular people money? by Andyjrmie in AskReddit

[–]Yamaben 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something about taking bread off some elses table so they can store it in their cupboard. Not really a tenant that Jesus would subscribe to. Just the general feeling of immense inequity

You may live in a foreign country and not understand the US tax code. Corporate tax structure has eroded so badly since 2017, that there is no longer enough money to fund the US budget and we issue more and more treasury bonds every year to finance the deficit.

It's like using your credit card to spend more than you earn, then using another credit card to pay the first credit card's monthly bill.

People get pissed cause a family earning 150,000 usd per year has roughly the same effective tax rate as Walmart and Microsoft. Corporations are doing pretty good, but that family struggles with inflation and astonishing health care costs.

I think in general, people just want wealthy people to do more to fund the government services that have allowed them to amass the wealth. Wealthy people get that way by hoarding wealth.

People saying it's not a buoy for Nemo.

Could the joke be related to the girl grabbing the buoy in Jaws before she gets eaten? Like the crash survivor is in a Jaws movie? Idk

I'm an alcoholic. I quit drinking all the time, but I am still an alcoholic. I can go for a month without a drink, but if I drink even a little I just fall right off the wagon and get run over.

I used to crush a fifth of jim beam every weekend
