@KJV_OutbackCat @littlemykonos Leviticus 19:34 — treat foreigners “as native-born”.
Matthew 25:35 — “I was a stranger and you invited me in.”
Hebrews 13:2 — hospitality to strangers.
@DeltaMike_6@crowthevegan ‘I used capital gains to buy my first house’ isn’t the flex you think it is. Needing existing asset appreciation to buy shelter is literally the symptom.
@TaxPawspective You’re defending concessional treatment for capital by using an ultra rare founder example while pretending ordinary investors don’t exist.
People aren’t debating “guy turns $1k into $5m”. They’re debating if capital income gets structurally better treatment than labour income.
@___Cashy Calling this ‘double taxation’ is spin. Income tax is on wages. CGT is on new gains created by assets. If your shares don’t rise, there’s no CGT. PAYG workers paying full marginal rates while large capital gains get discounted forever was the distortion.
