A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

A: they shouldn't
Though I think the real issue with combating that is scale. These fuckers have the whole world available to them.
If their country raises their taxes to 99%, they just flee.
You can't have one country implementing reforms while others sit idly be, because of that...so it's really hard to make a reform, then lose X massive amount of investment from these soggy fucks that would pull out their investment money just out of spite, then somehow justify the move when business starts corroding in your country - in the short term of course...because in the long term I'm sure it's beneficial.
But with how things are going nowadays I wouldn't be surprised to see them fighting back too. I'd expect a fight on all fronts, from political, to economical, to societal, against any country that tries that sort of thing...
They're such a fucking plague.
The solution isnt taxes.
The solution is Woodchipper
well yea but it's not gonna happen
Americans could always use violence against them because they're armed to the teeth, but they don't. The people don't rebel unless they're literally starving.
Because Americans are the most propagandized, passive people on the planet.
Until it comes to respecting gay or trans or liberals, then a small portion get insanely violent.
