That's an impressively stupid take

Thank you, I made it myself

It's not really a take though, it's more of a recounting of events. None of that is opinion.

The suggestion is that step 5 is the reason for the first 4 steps.

That's wrong both in terms of motive and in terms of recounting.

Taxes are government profit.
