In order to avoid said recourse, the company will usually offer a severance package. For example a company I used to work for did a big restructure and the laid off employees got a half months salary for every year they'd been at the company + 2 months paid leave
No, it isn't. Exactly this mindset is why we call it "power-tripping" because you think the powers given to you to enforce rules are "fair fucking game" to use as a tool to inflict negativity.
Respond with negativity if you wish, but leave your mod powers out of it. Invoking mod powers to punish someone who hasn't broken the rules is definitionally abuse of power.
What you don't seem to understand is that responding to negativity with negativity is not what makes this PTB. That's a fairly normal response. What makes this PTB is deciding to use your mod powers as a means to inflict negativity on people, inflicting punishment on people not because of the rules, but because you feel like it. You explicitly admitted to doing this: "Now I'm removing it just to spite you".
Obviously tax law would have to be more nuanced, if you only own a single house then you can't be expected to sell it just to pay the tax on it, but the tax could accumulate for when/if you do sell it. But someone who owns hundreds of properties which increase in value, could be expected to sell some to pay the tax. The point is to affect people who hide their actual income from taxes like this, just like Bezos does.
Because it is also a messed up way to tax people, to only require people who can't afford these tax evasion strategies to pay income tax.
You complain about bullshit manipulation, then spread your own blatant disinformation to try support the billionaires??
The "real tax rate" isnt based on a stable net worth, it is based on the increase in net worth over X years (ie. Income), compared against the amount of tax paid over the X years.
If someones house increased in value at a rate of $1M per year, then they absolutely should be paying income tax on that $1M every year. Once it stops increasing in value, then it would no longer be contributing to income, and therefore would not be subject to income tax. It is pretty simple.
The connection is simply the hypocrisy of republicans who yell about AOC being underqualified, while being totally ok with someone actually completely unqualified.
This is exactly why it should throw an error, to make it incredibly obvious something isn't working correctly so it can be fixed. Otherwise you have wrong logic leading to hard to notice and hard to debug problems in your code
Hard to tell if this is a metaphor or just a status update of an acrobat
