UK's inheritance tax is high AF.
There’s normally no Inheritance Tax to pay if either: the value of your estate is below the £325,000 threshold you leave everything above the £325,000 threshold to your spouse, civil partner, a charity or a community amateur sports club what kind of bullshit is that. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd like to learn something for all the taxation is theft people are you just referring to federal taxes? How would the highways get paved, etc? Estate tax is theft. specifically. Also, road tax and tolls pays for the highways.  Also, we could finance a large portion of our military by oil sales. When we "liberated" Iraq, we could have put a tax on exported oil. Same shit with Kuwait. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd like to learn something for all the taxation is theft people are you just referring to federal taxes? How would the highways get paved, etc? There are things like use and the gas (or EV charging) tax for this. Still theft, but more "fair"/less egregious and don't punish being productive like the income tax (it's also no one's business, including govts' how much money you earn). Most of us who are correctly identifying taxation as robbery, are especially at odds with taxation when it's used for redistributive (vote buying) and "social engineering" purposes. These fall outside of the legitimate role of govt. (if there is one), which is protecting rights. |

This is the idiocy of royalty….they need special rules to remain special. These folks will ALWAYS be rich and never need to work.
Ah well, we’ve always sought to create a “royal” class in the US, athletes, actors, singers, musicians. King James, Queen Latifah are just current items. Sultan of the Swat was Babe Ruth’s nickname. Prince at least had some modesty. Benny Goodman, King of Swing. Camelot for the Kennedy’s. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: people that want a highway would pay to build it and then maybe charge people to use it or otherwise raise the funds for it. Taxes on income are wrong. Taxes USED to be (according to the British common and merchant laws we basically carried over) only on wealthy landowners and businesses... particularly businesses who export. Somehow, the devolved into excise taxes on products, then, it turned into taxes on salaries. The politicians who pitched these salary taxes 100 years ago swore it would only apply to the super wealthy millionaires, and it would never exceed 5% regardless.  Idk what arfcom pays in taxes but...I'm pretty sure our elected officials keep lying to us, because I'm not super wealthy, I don't own large tracts of land, I don't own a big business, and I pay way more than 5%. It's almost like: government goons steal our money then blame us when they don't have enough... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Good, taxation is theft. If this is property under Crown Estate, there's constraints. Even the monarch is prohibited from selling, which is the primary test of "ownership". At best he's gained control. So if the UK Gov has imposed limited agency I see no issue with limited liabilities RIF - its Lancaster which is the private estate of the sovereign. Still no issue as the sovereign can't access other methods rich puffs in the UK use in avoidance (LOL Monaco) - it'd dilute the Crowns resources as well. Long as they put up with the system, the rules gonna favor. |
