tl;dr: ITT bitcoin millionaires talk about why the 1% isn't bad

lol, you realise I have fuck all right in my Bitcoin wallet right now? Cheesy

either way, my opinion won't change on this, not until the people screaming about taxing the rich say it's okay to tax themselves as well.

Not that you specifically mentioned flat tax per se, but I'd still like to point out that taking $100 tax from somebody who makes $1000 a month might make it so they can't eat, while taking $1000 from somebody who makes $10000 a month will not put that same pressure on them.

I think you may be forgetting that the $10,000 isn't just sitting in a money bag somewhere, but is likely being used to invest in something else, which in turn gives someone a job or a place to live. For example, my parents make about twice that a month, but only get to use about $1,000 of that on themselves, the rest going to pay for places for others to live in.

Your rents make 20k & only get 1k to live on? $1,000 a month? $500/mo each? You should help out your parents, bro, that's no way to live. Angry
