@MangaRockRefugee well, then instead of simple reaction, you'd break up a wall of text with even more wall of text

 

[Kyujyu]

@scorpiowolf I was scrolling the wall of text to see if anyone else have the same question as me lol

 

[Hounder]

LOL, making money by selling moonshine. 😀

 

[cullinaire]

Looking forward to the prohibition chapter 😆

Everybody knows that the first step toward civilization is producing booze.

Author kinda forgot that printing directly revolutionised medieval society, even limited forms of it brought China centuries ahead of other civilizations. Definitely worth more than just one page

You think Russia is bad? The Netherlands have a 75% income tax.

 

[Qelix]

Congratulations, you just invented liqueur and therefore are the inventor of modern alcoholism. What's phase 2? Tobacco? Always keep in mind, the harder the drugs, the higher the profit. Go for opium and heroine next!

@HYBRID_BEING
Which tax are you talking about?
Land tax for an individual or private business is 0.3-1.5 of the land's cadastral value and same for legal entity

@mahtan @sgnm4872
Wait, we are talking about single tax here? My bad, then.

Also, 42% and 75% income taxes? Is this progressive taxes for super-rich or something?

 

[mahtan]

@HYBRID_BEING
It's weird but no, that seens to be the normal tax for everyone there. Was also surprise when I saw it...
But like, I live in Brazil and here not only there is a 20-30% income tax there is also a lot of other tax over things that are buyed and other money tranfer. The last time I saw it was consiered that in Brazil the citzen pays around 58% or all income in tax in one way or another.

@mahtan
I can't seem to find anything on that 75% tax in Netherland, though.

Nice translation
"Sell wine etc"
"WINE?! IS THAT SOME KIND OF WINE?"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_in_the_Netherlands
"In the past, the highest income bracket in the Netherlands was 72%, but in 1990 it was changed to 60%, and in 2001 it became 52%."
So before 1990 it was around 72% for the highest income. Which is crazy, because who the fuck would ever work a high paying job if that much of your money was being taken. Even when it's dropped by 20 points I'm pretty sure people are legit bargaining to get lower income to avoid having that much money taken from them.

@Trov
Ah, i jumped straight to the current taxes, so i missed the history bit. Thanks for the info.
