Then I don’t think you’ve met people. Because I have met people and they do care.

What makes you doubt that? Sure, I’m an internet stranger and can’t know what situation you’re in, but I still wish you well, regardless of what you’ve been through. Is there a reason that makes you doubt that anyone might care even the very least?

It sounds like you’re in a bad place. Sorry to hear you feel that way.

Hey there, who hurt you so bad you gave empathy all together?
- Comment on Palestine to raise flag at World Health Organization for first time after vote 1 week ago:
Yeah I agree, that’s a very bad look for the countries that voted against the proposal. Even China and the Saudis have the moral high ground.
- Comment on Kneecap member charged with terror offence 1 week ago:
Which flag did they display? It only said it’s ‘a flag displayed in support of…’.
Is it a Palestinian flag or a flag owned by one of those organizations?

What’s your point here?
- Comment on ‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’ 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I agree it’s always harder to define than it seems at first glance. Square footage might be a better proxy with fewer loopholes. Problem is that a shitty rundown house will be taxed the same as a luxury house of the same size. That might be fine, I don’t know.
I think regardless of how you do it, taxes need to be adjusted for inflation or change of average living costs, like any tax brackets could/would. I think one of the goal should be to avoid artificially inflated living costs.
And also regardless of approach, tax limits should probably also depend on how many people live in the house. That can probably be abused too though.
Either way, I don’t know much about economy and taxes, this is just me thinking out loud on a complex topic.

That was very well put, thank you.
- Comment on ‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’ 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, the devil would be in the details, of course, and to make sure there aren’t any obvious loopholes. Ideally it would be at increasing brackets as well.
Wouldn’t taxes on above-X value keep prices down? Buying fancy houses as investment could be countered by the additional running expense of taxes.
Basing it on square footage could also work, or as an additional parameter, but might make more sense in cities where space is more scarce.
- Comment on ‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’ 2 weeks ago:
Why not tax the property for all value above X. Where X is some amount over the average or median property value. That way, if you can afford a luxury home you pay some more tax on it.

- Comment on ‘Bear with me,’ Trump says as both farmers and consumers brace for tariff effects 2 months ago:
Not sure if your sarcastic but why not give it all to consumers and let the them boost the economy which in turn create jobs?
- Comment on ‘Bear with me,’ Trump says as both farmers and consumers brace for tariff effects 2 months ago:
Yeah, if the tariffs went straight and equally to all citizens it might not be such a bad idea.

Whining about condoms is such a shitty thing to do. There are only benefits to distributing them.

Because the first-past-the-post system makes it very unlikely for more parties to emerge.
