Cant imagine making 30 k a year and having to pay even 1600 in taxes. This is saying it will increase that much.
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
Solution: stop paying taxes.
I just started doing this for federal, not state, and I'm curious what happens.
I'll probably owe a little extra fee at EOY, but I'm not worried about that. They'll have to ask me for this money.
And then I'll probably try and get a payment plan. Just deny and delay as long as I can.
Because why not?
Presidential!
Because a defunded IRS will track easy fish like yourself and be quicker to fine you.
Pay it because if you don't pay it they might come and make you pay it? Poor argument.
I don't care. I struggle to even find accountants willing to do my taxes, I doubt underfunded IRS is going to want to tackle that mess.
And even if they do, I'm of multiple cultures that I'm damned if I do regardless, so might as well take that extra money and do some good with it while I can.
