The people choose their government. The people choose participatory remuneration to be equal to their counterparts in Europe, Asia and Russia. The current policy is that you receive between $30,000.00-$40,000.00 just to wake up and it is not taxed.

The people choose their government.  The people choose participatory remuneration to be equal to their counterparts in Europe, Asia and Russia.  The current policy is that you receive between $30,000.00-$40,000.00 just to wake up and it is not taxed.  You earn additional monies when you work and then these monies are taxed. For instance, if you earn an additional $20,000.00  as a cock plucker and chicken Skinner, then this is taxable.  If you sell your unique brand of shoes or work as a nurse and earn an additional $50,000.00 this is taxable. If you are a police officer, you might earn $100,000.00-$300,000.00 in total. But, you would only pay tax on the $60,000.00.  This is how it is in Europe.    Your total earnings would be $90,000.00 but only $50,000.00 is taxable.  Having a vibrant, well fed, housed and creative people for identity is more important than having a currency for identity.  The money comes back to the manufacturers or sellers in the consumption and the government receives the money back in sales taxes as collected.   This is not welfare.  This is just economic common sense and  be honest. You rob banks and you don't mind being handed cash at the back of the tavern, pub, local hockey arena or the fire station.
Even if you look native in any part of the world, it is all Roman dna by now; right Charlemagne because Buck loves to....???
