The richest Dutch pay 28% tax while the rest pay 40% or more
  • Misleading title. Not incorrect, but it is based on what the source of income is, it is not about how rich you are relative to the rest of the population. The title makes it sound like if you make a certain amount of money, your tax rate is lowered. Alternatively, it sounds like the richest Dutch are evading 12% worth of taxes. But neither of these are true statements AFAIK, and either way they aren't made in the article, so the title is misleading.

    Edit: Changed "the top 1%" to "the richest Dutch".

  • Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu
  • I considered it before I switched from 7 to 10, but since 10 still makes it possible to create an offline account and disable most of the spyware and other bloat, I opted to stay with Windows for another generation of OS. 11 is different though, it's several steps too far into proprietary hell.

  • And I'll vote for him again
  • Since when is Joe Rogan bad enough to warrant getting shot in the first place? I feel like the guy has said some bad (and far more dumb) things but it's not like he poses any kind of danger to anyone does he? I know this is besides the point, but murder is far from proportional to anything (that I am aware of) that Joe has been known to do. With that said I don't really know much about what he's been up to for the past 5 years or so.

  • Why do we even have to have this conversation in the first place
  • So even if Biden is a bad candidate we should pretend like he's not because the alternative is worse? Trump is absolutely much worse, but that doesn't make Biden good. Why do we have to sell him as an above average candidate when he's not? Honestly I don't really see your point here. Claiming that Biden is bad doesn't make Trump any better. I'd also like to clarify that I never said that anyone should not vote for Biden. And I definitely don't endorse voting for Trump as an alternative.

  • Why do we even have to have this conversation in the first place
  • Above average Democrat? Please, the guy has dementia. And no, I'm not a right winger, and I obviously think Trump is a worse option. But Biden isn't above average anything at this point. He's barely awake.
