    You're not playing the tax evasion game. It's designed to separate the sharp from the dumb, to incentivize a smart ruling class to take from their class' dumber members. A fool and his loot are soon parted.

    Nixon bombed Cambodia because the enemy found shelter there and attacked from there. Like the Taliban does from Pakistan.

    Goose, gander.

    It's a case of non-sequitur. Marcos, India, irrelevant.

    We're not bombing India, we're not bombing any of our other allies. At least not on purpose.

    Cambodia, irrelevant. What does what "some people" think about Nixon have to do with Joe Biden exactly?

    I am a patriot and disagree with evading any tax. I give no reason for the government to ever audit me.

    The global one percent? If I wanted to be identified with a group, (be it evil or not) it would be with the poor, the ill or the oppressed.

    You can't choose who you are identified with when it comes to income level. If you make over $34,000, you are the global 1%. You are an oppressive, crushing, imperialist who's existence is a threat to 99% of the world's population. You pillage the earth of its natural resources for your consumeristic and greedy nature. The fact that you own a computer or a phone, create climate change by using a car, using air conditioning and having a house are unfathomable luxeries for the 99%. Your lifestyle is unimaginable to how the rest of the people on earth live, you are out of touch.

    Your luxuries are built on the blood, sweat and tears of those you don't even care about or recognize existing.

    I mean that's how it works when we're talking about the 1% in the US, right? Make over $250k or whatever and you're automatically a greedy asshole who wastes their money on frivolous items one would never need.

    Just calling a spade a spade. you can't be all "Oh man, fuck the 1% they are all greedy assholes". Then when you find out you are part of the global 1% you're all like "well, that's different, I'm compassionate for the needs of the poor!"

    I get what your saying. And it's amazing how important the visual interpretation of data is in such studies....

    If you judge Nixon as war criminal for bombing cambodia (and laos), then you should judge Biden (Obama) the same way for bombing Pakistan. Both used the same reasoning for the bombing - the enemy attacks in country (Vietnam/Afghanistan) and then runs and hides across the border.

    Not non sequitur.
