this is the reason i believe self employment isnt remotely encouraged by public institutions excelt anecdotally. corpos get the employees, govos get the maximum amt of tax dollars upfront before the suckers get paid, only to have to complete their annual beg for refund form each year ( almost certainly via paid software).

What a scheme. Bravo tax man 👏
Fuck em.
there is a scene in boardwalk empire i remember to this day where the income tax was a recently enacted scheme in the time of the show ( prohibition era ) and in the show the main char is talking to the then Treasury Secretary that referred to it as the biggest fucking scam ever pulled on the american people. i was a liberal at the time when i saw it so was thrown aback by such a claim but it struck me then...i think its one of the things that stuck with me enoigh and kept my mind open a crack til bitcoin flooded in years later.
