@BenBinnen @burckmeister No they cannot, because you are only taxed on actual gains. It doesn't matter how you make money, capital or work, income is income and is taxed. It's about time we stopped giving people who make money from capital freebies.

@dirkjanmeijer @mediamarkt_nl Voor 2000 euro had je ook 4 wasmachines van 500 euro kunnen kopen, die gemiddeld 5-6 jaar meegaan. Daar doe je 20 jaar mee, en je neemt de besparingen in elektriciteit van nieuwere modellen mee. Er is geen enkele reden om 2000 aan een machine uit te geven.

@burckmeister @BenBinnen The tax is 36%. That leaves 64% to you. Taxing the last penny would be 100%. This is basic math.

@usludurkizim 72. Multiply the top two numbers with each other and then multiply by 2.

@Archer83Able Are the presidents you agreed this with, in the room with us right now, Mr President?

@PixelPlatoon80 Het gaat er niet om of ze een rode of blauwe streep op de broek van hun uniform hadden, het gaat er om of beide korpsen elkaar actief tegenwerkten en een pedofiel lieten ontsnappen. Dat is het probleem dat ze moesten oplossen.

@PDXFato @martindelp You say that as if that is the only metric important? You (and with you I mean FIFA, so actually not you at all) may have made some money, but you destroyed the game while doing it, with your four quarters, exorbitant prices, and political meddling. Good finances, bad sports.

@JeremyClusterFk @frontlinekit This is one of the two warehouses of Wildberries, the Russian Amazon. Ukraine said they have been shipping sanctioned components for drone fabrication. So it's probably all kinds of electronics burning, batteries, PCB's, anything.

@The1796 It's true that you do, but only because of the hilarious shit you guys keep doing. The US is basically the comic relief of the world right now. Pretty much everyone is happy not to live in the US. That's the best part about the World Cup in the US: the flight back home.

@creation247 Really? Because when it comes to political freedom and civil liberties (which is the true kind of freedom that counts, not the freedom to own a gun or buy an air conditioner) pretty much all European countries rank higher than the US, by 10 points: https://t.co/ymrxvGzQ2K

@Living4aLiving_ Trust me, nobody in Europe understands American football. We don't get the rules. We don't understand what all those players are doing. By the first 10 minutes of which 5 everybody is standing still and 3 are a commercial break, we've all fallen asleep.

@Fairfield1466 @FAmmiranteTFJ Gentle reminder that 48 (!) teams competed in the WC, way too much to be serious. Each group had at least two teams that just suck and were just there for shits and giggles. Anything up to and including the R32 was just a friendly match. R16 is when the real matches begin.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@FanDuel 1-7 for France. And the one goal for the US would have been an accidental own goal. Then, in the second half, the French would just control the ball and gently walk around until full time.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@L_ewis3 Look at it this way: everybody hates you, but the US were also in the tournament, and everybody hates them even more. And the VAR is well underway to make everybody hate Argentina more than you too.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@MaxBretosSports It must suck, finding out by watching a bunch of subprime football players doing that silly dance that the whole world has been laughing at you for the past 1,5 years. It just took a football tournament in your own country to find that out. Maybe you should watch the news more.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@JimHendley4NC Do you want some cheese with that whine? Your dictator tried to cheat, and your team was only in the tournament because you organised it and got a free ticket. You've been playing 3rd class teams and winning and thought you actually could make it. The big boys just humbled you.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@AmericanHoolis 1. Nobody eats waffles here that often.
2. Courtois may be an idiot and an asshole, but he is still the best in the world.
3. We are not as good as we used to be, and we know it.
4. USMNT would never have been in the WC if they did not organise it and never had any chance.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@peppe8891 @InvertTheWing Yes you do. Spain was the better team. But that doesn't make Spain good. They will get absolutely raped by France next week, who seem to be the only team playing their expected level without being helped by the VAR.

[Cedric Roijakkers @Ajunne]

@PawlowskiMario And also because football in the US is horribly expensive to play as a kid, so is only reserved for the better class; and because it is concidered a sport for girls. Make it cool and put it in everyone's reach, and you will find talent everywhere within one generation.
