Remember the old adage that it’s only illegal if you get caught? Now you know why Republicans have been cutting the IRS budget for years. No money to do audits, or pay analysts, or investigate claims, etc.

Please don’t remind me.......my father has chickens for that exact purpose.

Truth be told, almost anyone who has a significant amount of earnings that come in large chunks/waves that aren’t particularly routine (such as one-off fees and bonuses), will be advised to route them through an S-corp or some other entity in order to stave off taxes.

I know a few people in that category (with most of…

But this is the way the system is supposed to work!

I don’t need an explanation of why they exist, but to have no explanation when something changes, sometimes NPCs literally changing race overnight, in a setting which otherwise explains changes over time using a meta-story, feels super jarring.

I’m glad you tied the history of the nation with the sociological intentions.

I don’t think its a matter that all people consciously believe that “white is right.” It’s that our society normalizes these ideas to the point that people think its normal. And it only becomes a problem when art actively goes against this. We don’t question why Batman has to be white, but good lord do people take…

I’m sure there are people that subscribe to this line of thinking, that white is right pretty much anywhere, but personally as someone that has studied history academically and as a hobby, I’m very interested in how and why even white people came to be where they are.
