How will this exactly kill the income tax?  I understand what is being written, however the income tax is still due whether or not it is collected from the door or not.  Not paying it will be considered tax evasion and that is not good.

Even if you do not pay your tax because you were using bitcoin that does not mean anymore that bitcoin could really eliminate tax(Government can surely review your assets especially if you leave in US or UK you are being monitored (just like what happened to coinbase that has a pending case because of not showing its customers records)

Nowadays, tax evasion is getting more and more difficult, for ordinary people. The government surveillance is getting stricter and stronger. Only the oligarchs and the billionaires are stashing their money in tax heavens now.

Just ask the models, if they care about the origin of US Dollars in payments from the Webcam Site.
All of them care their attention only to tokens, and probably they have no idea about that the site accept Bitcoins.

Well... if you offer them a 20% bonus, if they take the payment in Bitcoins, then I assume that at least some of them may be interested in the crypto-currency. On the other hand, if you want them to choose between $250 in fiat and $250 worth of BTC, then they are not going to prefer the latter option.

ah, yes, the old "he's the new Hitler" sentance. What about columbia? Is it a prospering country? Every country that is poor in some way, has it's ground taken by drug dealers, because people see no future, can't find work and turn to being a drug dealers.

No, it's a war on drug dealers, that what you said just leads to one being a drug dealer to make money.

In Colombia, most of the arable land is under the control of a few influential families. The vast majority of the people are landless. They have two choices in order to earn a living - engage in the production of cocaine, or join the FARC.

I don't think that the radiation fallout will reach Antarctica. Also, the ice sheets are some 2,000 meters thick in some places. So establishing a subterranean base in that continent may be the best way to stay alive during the WW3.

I've opened a world map to find a nice play to chill at and Tuvalu(since it's far in the ocean), Chile (surrounded by mountains), Fiji (also a remote island) and yes antarctica. Cheesy Those are  just some of the right away obvious countries that I've found.

I don't think that Chile will be a safe place, as it is a major country in the Latin America. They will be participating in the world war, unlike the small Pacific nations such as Tuvalu. Fiji is also having agreements with the NATO.

Boss, if you want to spend bitcoin to porn sites, please sell those bitcoins to me, and I will provide you hard cash or bank transfer. You keep on paying to the porn sites via bank transfer while I will enjoy the huge upside potential of bitcoin. Treat bitcoin as an investment which will fecth you much higher return in future, instead of spending it in to porn sites. Take my advice for good!

If everyone treat Bitcoin as an investment asset instead of a currency, then the usage will go down, and the popularity will vanish. And in the end, the exchange rates will crash and Bitcoin will become worthless.

Wtf lol. Where do you live that doesn't have sales tax? This is about income tax. The government gets you coming and going. You made $30,000? I'll take 7. Now of that $23,000 you'll pay 13% tax on everything so it's really only worth ~$20,354. No wonder if rich people avoid taxes they get richer. Us poor bastards would save $10,000 a year!!!

The laws are the same for every one, and in most of the countries the tax rates for the rich are greater than those for the poor. Some people manage to pay less taxes, as they prepare their tax returns intelligently.

What makes you think US citizens are becoming more stupid and psychopathic?

Idiot thinks that all the Americans are stupid, for not electing that war monger criminal Hillary Clinton. IMO, the American voters proved that they are intelligent, as they elected an anti-establishment candidate, despite the 24x7 propaganda against him from the mainstream media.

+1

Trump is new to politics and lacks experience, but that's better than a proven liar, a conspirator and a wife of a proven liar and one of the worst presidents in history.

Hillary is an expert in starting new wars, and it is this part which I hates the most. As someone who lives in Asia, I don't care whether she lies or conspires. But starting new wars and killing civilians is a taboo for me.

Perhaps. The recount in Michigan turned up more Democrat votes than actual people in some precincts. So Democrats donated to expose Democrat voter fraud.

Yeah.... if you remember, it was the Democrat appointed US District Judge Mark Goldsmith, who initially ordered a recount in Michigan. It was the same judge, who hastily halted it, when massive voter fraud was exposed in Detroit.

Quote
The Detroit News found voting scanning machines at 248 of the city’s 662 precincts — 37 percent — tabulated more ballots than the number of actual voters counted in the poll books.

Vaccines are not yet available for the most serious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, cancer, and Ebola. Even the existing medications and vaccines are losing their healing power, due to drug resistance. And certain groups of people refusing to get vaccinated is being cited as one of the main reasons for the prevalence of drug resistance.

I think that vaccines against these terrible diseases have been invented, but the government is not profitable to promote their

Why should the government hide the invention of important vaccines? It will save the government tens of billions of USD from the health budget (especially if vaccines are invented for diseases for cancer, HIV.etc).
23172  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: December 17, 2016, 03:35:16 PM
We can achieve drug free in the Philippines by killing those people who have serious cases. President Duterte think that this is one main solution to have a drug free and to utilize our country from the criminals. One reason why our country still suffering from poverty.

Philippines will not be 100% free from the drug menace, even if you kill 90% of the population. You should treat the disease, and not the symptoms. Eradicate poverty and lack of medical care, if you want people to stay away from drugs.

When the judiciary is corrupt and incompetent, the vigilantes will rise. Take the infamous Nirbhaya rape case in India for example. The main accused, (Mohammed Afroze) was freed after just two-years in a juvenile detention facility, since he managed to forge the ID documents to claim that he was under 18 years. This guy was the most barbaric of all the rapists, and during the rape he inserted a metal rod inside the vagina of the victim, causing half of her intestine to come out. Now he is free, and the Delhi government has given him a monetary loan, so that he could "settle".

DPR should form it's own government so that it could become a sovereign state.

The government exists since 2014, and they have even conducted a round of the parliamentary elections. They lack recognition though. Only a few breakaway states such as South Ossetia and Abkhazia recognizes them.
23175  Other / Politics & Society / Re: No more Gas transit through former Ukranine after 2018 on: December 17, 2016, 03:27:40 PM
Those pipelines will eventually be built. EU countries need lots of cheap and environmentally friendly gas to replace polluting coal power.

The European Union needs gas, and there is no doubt about it. Now let's look at the sources:

1. Pipeline gas from Russia - Pipelines are already built, and Russia supplies around 170 billion cubic meters of gas every year.
2. Pipeline gas from Azerbaijan - Pipeline in construction. Expected to export as much as 17 billion cubic meters every year to the EU in near future.
3. Pipeline gas from Iran - in planning stage.
4. LNG from Qatar - Imports growing since 2008. Almost 200% more costlier than the Russian gas.

As you can see, the EU won't be independent of Russian gas anytime in the near future.

You don't know why people dislike it, so would you kill a man/woman/child then chop them up and eat them?

Are you new to this debate? Go back a few pages, and you will understand that we are talking about cannibalism occurring as a last resort to stay alive in case no other form of food is available. For sure, I am not going to kill anyone and chop them because I am hungry.
23177  Other / Politics & Society / Re: ‘Russian threat’ myth on: December 16, 2016, 11:56:31 AM
You're lying, as always! Popular vote Trump lost by 2 million votes. But most importantly that he will make more power and it will not give him the opportunity to be a trump card in the hands of Putin.

According to the official count, Trump trails Hillary by some 2 million votes. But everyone knows that millions of illegals and felons voted for Hillary in states such as California and Michigan. I am saying that Trump would have won the popular vote, had these people barred from voting.

You forget bout the land of kebab removals since 1389. But that that may even happen earlier, with all these attacks, people will eventually snap and there will be chaos if something isn't done soon to prevent that.

The land of kebab removals has chosen self-extinction from low birth rates. That is the main reason why they lost Kosovo. And this is not limited to Serbia. The Muslims are slowly implementing the demographic Jihad methodology in Bosnia, Macedonia, and Montenegro.

When we live earth is extremely scarce, no food, everything can only be divided into can eat and not eat, in extreme hunger and desire to survive under the condition of reason over emotion, will choose to eat all the food, regardless of whether or not people.

Cannibalism has been reported to have occurred in almost all of the major famines. Examples are the Soviet famine of 1932-33, Great Chinese Famine of 1959-61, and the famine which resulted from the siege of Leningrad. More recently a few unconfirmed reports have come from Venezuela, but I am not sure about their authenticity.

The Crimea is Ukraine, and until Russia will not return control of Crimea to Ukraine there will be no opportunity for people's lives. Now there can live only pensioners and the military.

Crimea was Ukrainian occupied territory from 1954 to 2014, before the invaders were kicked out two years ago. The living standards have improved since then. On the other hand, what is left of Ukraine has become a down-trodden third world nation, even worse than Somalia.
Can of course Ukraine is worse than Somalia, but definitely better than Russia.

Stats speak otherwise. Here are some:

* In 2015, Russia had a population growth of 32,038 (0.2 per 1,000). Fertility rate is 1.78 children per woman.
* In 2015, Ukraine had a population decline of 183,012 (-4.3 per 1,000). Fertility rate is 1.50 children per woman.

Average salary in Ukraine is $188 per month. The same in Russia is $584 per month.
