  6. “It is not very unreasonable that the rich should contribute to the publick expence, not only in proportion to their revenue, but something more than in that proportion”

  8. CW: Taxation

    Why do I keep saying that landowners are the ones that should pay higher taxes?

    It's because it doesn't make sense to me that land ownership should be respected for "not paying into the system".

    Like, if you want to play this silly game that little boys play of territorialism in elementary school playgrounds, where they draw imaginary boundaries, then by all means do so.

    But for people who didn't consent to it, you gotta have a good reason why the respect for imaginary boundaries should be enforced.

    To make it really easy: don't tax improvements; just land ownership.

  9. CW: Taxation

    The Reddit comments regarding the following post are calling out how it is absolutely fair that BC assessment has reclassified Big Bang Cider's land use as "light industrial", but I don't think land use should be taxed more.

    Just land occupation should be taxed, and nothing else.

    (Of course, I'm probably the "anti-tax (except land)" equivalent of marxists: I'm probably missing nuance.)
