No taxation without representation...

low… taxation?
November 4, 2026 at 3:12 AM
and if we're talking about fiscal health, there's no reason that fiscal *health* is dependent on austerity over e.g. well designed broad based taxation

End to corruption and money in politics. Fair taxation. Healthcare. Abolish DHS and their goons.

It doesn’t matter who they support; they should have full rights as citizens. No taxation without representation and whatnot

This is why taxation is not an adequate solution given the enormity of the problem.
This is… insane:

“Musk has spent $474 million to help Trump and the GOP win the midterms…roughly 0.05% of his net worth.”

“If you compare his worth to the median American’s, Musk’s political spending this election cycle is equivalent to $116.”

From @andrewperez.bsky.social & @swin24.bsky.social:
How Elon Musk Bought the Midterms. We Did the Math
Musk has spent $474 million to help Trump and the GOP win the midterms. For everyday Americans, it’s the equivalent of buying a few IMAX tickets or a DoorDash dinner for two.

Wealth redistribution via taxation has to be a Dem strategy moving forward.

Chuds went straight for Anakin, but it turns out the true political lessons of Star Wars were about the risky politics of taxation and trade.

enforces taxation of trade routes
Prequels Anakin Skywalker really is a good mascot for the psycho right -- Hot girl falls for him despite his total lack of social skills, refused a promotion he unrealistically thought he earned by a Black man, seduced by a weird old man who wants power, blames others for his failures, kills kids.

I wonder is MPs reliance on Twitter explains why they are so dismissive of polling evidence presented by progressive civil society on issues such as climate change and wealth taxation. There's a real "I don't believe these numbers represent the real public" vibe to alot of MPs

My book considers resource mobilization in terms of taxation and conscription of the five great powers of the Hellenistic Mediterranean (c.280-167 BC): Rome, Carthage, Macedonia, Ptolemaic Egypt and the Seleucid Empire.

Time to overturn the uniformity clause and give Jeff Yass some proper taxation 🤠
All the calls are in for PA State Senate to need the Dems to flip it. It's done. Pennsylvania is now fully democratic. Time to get shit done.

like quite frankly WA state politics feel very "solved," save for our taxation issues, and people have nothing to rouse them from this laziness. Until now

Yep. Taxation Without Representation. Pure bullshit.

I hope this leads to taxation of churches.

Given the lack of an effective limitation period in many actions taken by the government against welfare recipients and in some taxation matters, the ATO arguing that it was too hard for the investigator to keep records is particularly infuriating.
A lead investigator with the Australian Taxation Office lied, doctored exhibits and withheld crucial evidence from a woman and her legal team, being hunted by ATO for potential fraud, for FIVE-AND-A-HALF-YEARS. The tax office / CDPP argued he just made mistakes. www.crikey.com.au/2026/11/04/a...
ATO savaged over fraud case as appeal flops, NACC involved
The Commonwealth has lost every challenge to the court’s findings of "deliberate dishonesty" regarding the Australian Tax Office's lead investigator in a fraud case.

I feel so giddy today, I can even believe DC statehood is within reach. No more taxation without representation!

LFG!

Conservatism: "Taxation is stealing your hard earned money."

Also conservatism: "Data centers because... TAXATION!"
