“Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon”
What are you going to do about it? Complain more on the same internet invented mostly by the country you hate?
You don’t like slavery, yet you’re using Latin characters, who were invented by the Romans? Checkmate!
Yea, wish we had a green race just like we had a space race during the 1st cold war, at leadt something useful would come out of it.
The liberal veneer of civility goes away in the moment you criticize their idols.they cant fathom somebody that doesn’t like mr joe “saviour of the world” biden or mrs kamala “sent here by god himself” harris since they live in political ecochambers, so the only possibile explanation is that Russia pays a bunch of people to post normal people’s opinions online (most people are not hardliner diehard democrats)
How will they enforce it? I’m sure big/medium businesses will comply, but how can you track a cash transaction between private citizens?
Furthermore in the country where I live (Italy, one of EU founding members) more than 60% of independent professionals (partite iva) evade/elude taxes in some way or another, and it’s very common (so common that every Italian experienced it many times in their lives, me included) for small businesses and professionals to offer you a slight discount if you pay cash under the table (no receipt, so no taxes) and, even if we have an entire police force dedicated to financial crimes, the submerged economy is just so big that they can’t deal with it now, imagine when they’ll have to arrest/fine everybody that accepts more than €3000 in cash.
What somebody writes on a piece of paper and what happens in the real world are 2 very distinct things, many stores in Italy don’t accept credit cards even if it’s against them law, and only a minuscule fraction of them gets fined.
The EU has extremely nazi-esque control on the private financial life of its citizens (the state monitors your bank account, to open a bank account you need to give every info about u in the future they’ll ask for your DNA probably, if you withdraw/deposit a “suspect” amount of money our IRS will come after your ass, ane you need to prove your innocence basically guilty untill proven otherwise, ecc, there are a thousand examples, I’m sure EU citizens can relate) but I can’t see how they’ll be able to track pieces of paper.
TLDR I can’t even see how they will be able to enforce this law, especially when we talk about small businesses/independent contractors, and the situation gets even funnier when its a transaction between 2 private individuals.
Amazon didnt pay a penny in taxes where i live, theyre giant criminals yet they dont need to use cash to evade taxes.
I think we need more govt subsidies to green tech and less subsidies to the fossil industry, i don’t care if it’s all a big 8d chess move to make us all speak Mandarin Chinese, the important bit is not dying rn.
I can’t say for sure but it’s certainly one of the countries in the world.
The Mediterranean has a right to defend itself! Are you anti-seamitic?
What’s your favorite color? The choice is yours! Benito Trumpolini or Benito Bidenlini?
No wonder, all far-right projects like his need a common enemy to unite against. If there’s none, just buy one.
They’re on that killing whistleblowers and making weapons that murder innocents grindset
Well, they’re doing it, and there are (at least, that we know of) 8 US military bases and over 11k US military personnel on Italian soil, they killed civilians with impunity more than one time.
For example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998_Cavalese_cable_car_crash
They’re usually tried in US courts where they’re handed a slap on the wrist and Italian courts can’t do anything about it.
50% of being a Linux user is hate towards Windows so I’d say it fits
The fact that a worker who barely makes ends meet pays 10-20 times the taxes Amazon pays is… Fascinating in a dark way.
Similar to feudal peasants that used to pay up in the form of free labor and produce, while their noble overlords enjoyed massive privileges and zero taxes.
Chad about to become gigachad
They weren’t colonized that’s for sure, they were (mostly) Muslim Arabs in a country where being a Muslim/Arab was normal and didn’t imply you had less rights or straight up didn’t deserve life.
Horrible work conditions, hot workplace with no AC and terribile boss.
