Yay more reasons to not work hard to bring value into the world!!

That's gay

In Italy a normal company or professionist is taxed *always* ~66%. I know, it's crazy.

There are some exceptions for new companies and young people with an income lower than โ‚ฌ85.000.

And assuming the Italian government runs itself and its programs as efficiently (or rather, as inefficiently) as other governments, then it's insane to entrust such a high proportion of one's own wealth to them.

Well the wealthy will move and not pay that

Thatโ€™s disgusting.

A lot of people make arrangements to put their money in trusts when they die, to help the beneficiaries. Litteraly stealing from the dead and from the future

They look really proud of themselves.

This isn't The Mandibles, its Atlas Shrugged.

Gg Canada ๐Ÿ

just 66.7 % ? why not tax at 100% ?

Can't resist dynamiting the Canadian economy just because he can

OMG. For me already 50% seems very insane.

What does this excess mean? Is that 66% of capital gains or is that 66% of 250k? Whats an average yearly wage there?
