[CNN MONEY] Get ready to pay sales tax on Amazon - Page 20  

post #191 of 322
Good now California can accomplish so much more with all that extra tax money... oh wait, they seem to spend absolutely no tax money on anything but politicians pockets waaaaaaah QQ.

seriously tho, I live in San Francisco, one of the richest cities in the world.. and the roads are embarrassingly bad, they are closing major parks down in Sonoma (Jack London), the whole bay area. The construction (aside from private corporate facilities) is awful... where does all this tax money go? frown.gif

Its kind of a hoot. Plus all the gays in san fran who are successful (which is quite a few) put almost no burden on the tax system by not having children, spending gratuitously, etc. I'm generalizing gays but in the end from an economic perspective, they are a plus for the economics of a city.

Please show me the stacks of evidence you have pointing to fiscal/social liberalism having a negative impact on the economy.

Um, everywhere liberalism has EVER been tried it has been an economic catastrophe?!?! Ever heard of Greece? The Soviet Union? France? Spain? The only places on earth where there is true economic prosperity are where the free market and capitalism is allowed to flourish unimpeded by people who think like you do.

You really think China and Cuba have the right idea don't you? doh.gif The pure ignorance of leftists who see socialism fail everywhere its tried yet still want to adopt those policies never ceases to amaze me... rolleyes.gif

post #200 of 322
People complaining about taxes, where I live, the minimum tax for anything computer related is 25,5%.

Let me break it down.

I want to buy a new laptop, it's $1,000 in the states - I'll end up paying for exactly the same laptop at any local computer store about $1,500-1,700. I could order it by my self for about $1,300 but that would be without warranty.

This is however only for computer items, for headphones, it a different story due two different taxes. For $1,000 headphones, I'd have to pay exactly $2,006. For a $1,000 TV, I'd pay $2,220.

That, my dear OCN fellas, s***s.
