  • Whilst I don’t want to argue about whether the appreciation of people in your life should be encouraged by a celebration day, I would like to point out that holidays aren’t specific to appreciating people . They can also be for appreciating things , such as natural phenomenon.

    Personally I’d prefer winter and summer type celebrations on the equinox and solstice than Christmas and a seemingly random (in my country) public holiday at a point in the summer where it isn’t that warm anymore.






  • Okay.

    I guess in the same way you found my comment to be for no reason, I also found yours to be the same.

    IMO, your comment wasn’t really on topic. They asked a question about why it happens to them, and you replied that it never happens to you. How is that on topic?

    I did find it interesting that it doesn’t happen in the US, I was just checking that you were just making a comment about your own experience, and not to help answer the ops question. That’s cool, and I was just checking.

    I hope you have a nice weekend:)





  • I think for this to work you need an agreement between wealthy countries to all apply this kind of tax. This would be an attempt to stop all the accounts from just living offshore.

    Not sure if the EU can apply this as a bloc style rule. I doubt the US powers that be would want to, and then other large powers I’d argue have even more questionable ruling classes anyway, but I’m open to being wrong on that last statement.

    I could be wrong on my first statement too. I haven’t thought it out that much.
