If we implement government policies that incentivize simple living, and tax wasteful living exponentially, it's going to benefit individuals. Wealthy people will be better off from having most of their wealth taxed because they'll have a more enjoyable simple lifestyle. permalink fedilink source parent [–] iHUNTcriminals@lemm.ee 5 points 3 years ago* For real. It's the same with food. Not that I eat healthy... Because I'm practically underweight so I'll generally eat anything. But after eating organic for awhile in the past I definitely favor fresh healthy over junk food. Regular Americanized food just tastes fake to me. Same with my room/home... It's so much easier when you only have less to take care of. permalink fedilink source parent [+] doom_and_gloom@lemmy.ml [B] 4 points 3 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
