@ssimon_chelsea This simply cannot happen under the CCP, where strict regulations limit the size of gatherings and state doctrines demand the "country (CCP) above all else".
@ssimon_chelsea Taiwan is important for Chinese Nationals living abroad. The temples built by Taiwanese Buddhist organisations offer a home away from home: a sanctuary to practice Chinese Buddhism, connect with one another, and discover untainted cultural roots.
@senatorbabet They lay the foundation for businesses to thrive and maintain law and order. If you doubt their value, try starting a business in a lower-tier country.
Your issue shouldn't be if there are taxes, but how much you pay and if theyโre used for it effectively to benefit all.
@MetamateDaz The problem is not the billionaires, the problem is the system.
Follow the money. Central banks lend money to banks. Banks lend money to investors. Investors buy the shares that the billionaires own, pushing up their "paper" wealth.
@foreignersinTW@kingradbod I was at a hotel once and saw someone with 10 different eye drops prescribed. Tell me how can eye can fit in more than one drop of liquid in one go?
@foreignersinTW@kingradbod Um no. Over 80% of the drugs I've seen prescribed in Taiwan is wrong. I've seen people with a simple bacterial conjunctivitis for 2 months or more when it can easily be fixed in a day or two. They use drugs thats not even on Wikipedia for medicinal use.
@0NSiGHTT@Eng_china5 If true, then exactly my point, propagate how they are taking care of their ppl. Not all of these technological superiority they have.
It's like they are trying to say they are better than US and rest of the world by playing their game than their own.
@WallStreetApes All things are impermanent, this is law. They may be wealthy materialistically now but with impermanence, at some point, they will also be completely broke or have debts they have to pay off. Would they want to slow aging then?
@harukaawake Modern society is entrenched in conflicts. If you look at the news, all you see is enmity. People are driven by selfish and self-serving thoughts and ideas. There is nothing you can do to stop this unless individuals learn to practice morality.
