    Taxing capital gains will only dampen the economy. Instead, use this lower tax to improve your financial situation.

        I don’t think there should be taxes at all. Not in a current form.

          Hang on, just getting my Libertarianism bingo card ready…

          Ok, so are you a free man of the land or one of those who thinks we should be able to buy rocket launchers at Tesco?

            Neither. Taxes should be nothing more than a subscription or an insurance. Taxes in the UK today are funneled straight into the pockets of Tory friends.

      Yes, because everyone has money to invest. So they should just make more money on their money and stop being poor. Why hasn’t a anyone ever thought of this. Just stop being poor.

        Literally no one is forcing you to be poor, it’s your own choice. And yes, everyone can save up a bit and invest. And it WILL snowball over your life. Don’t be stupid.
