RE: This follower count reminds me of my first GSM phone
Freaking taxes, why don't they leave steemit alone, douchebags.
The Phone is very old but it was very comfortable because it was so small. Nowadays they are so huge like a giant laptop.
That's how welfare states work. There are also good sides in paying taxes. Sure it can suck paying most of your money to the government but I still rather do that than live in some other country which isn't doing as great as Finland.
Mamma mia pizzeria, I should go and live in Finland...
While it's beneficial to pay taxes for say free medicare, schools and libraries, it is not fun to try to find out how these new means of income will eventually be taxed. And I don't want to end up paying extra because I did something wrong, or forgot something. (And I have a grave feeling that I have since I'm not the most practical person.)
You're probably right. Smartass officials can find out that you have another way of huge income and come to your house with a tax-rocket launcher!
Sometimes I feel like even the officials don't know how things should be taxed. I don't blame them because neither do I.
It is very likely that you haven't paid some sort of tax or payment or paid too little taxes so you will have to pay even more in the future.
It is actually a frightening prospect to deal with a tax official without a clue as to how it should be done but who nonetheless has to do it.
