I pay quite a bit in Denmark, but used to live in the US.

I pay more taxes now (not THAT much more but definitely more). However I see what I get for my taxes here: healthcare, bicycle lanes, cheap and very good trains/metro/ferries/buses everywhere, etc., and sooo much support for people. It makes me proud to pay taxes here, even though of course I always want more in my pocket and I want more for my money.

In the US I hated the taxes because I paid more than rich people (as they pay nearly none) and I didn't feel like i got a lot from them.

No problem with taxes as a concept, but I hate how the US uses tax money

WOW THAT REALLY CRANKS MY HOG

I actually do know. I briefly worked in F1, and I also separately registered my own car with a properly hand built chassis to NY state registration standards.

They are orders of magnitude apart. It's like saying "both this IKEA glass and the space shuttle took quite a bit of engineering". Trust me, more hours were put into any mundane F1 part than almost any other vehicle out there

This breaks down thousands of hours before an F1 car starts because it takes thousands of people to design them

Okay but it's still definitely soulless AI slop, fingers aside

Mom has more fingers than daughter? This just feels like AI slop

Yup, same. And that smug sense of superiority that comes with it.

I'll be excited to whip out a Phillips head screwdriver on the day my USB c port acts up to swap it :D

Anytime the dude looks up grooming the other kind distracts him and he learns nothing of the beard

So evenly tax everyone to support everyone instead of proportionally (more money, more car) tax people to support everyone?

Disagree
