I wish we could measure "asshole-ness" then we could have asshole tax

  this lawsuit is essentially it.

    But I mean like a literal like TurboTax question what was your asshole score last year

      Given the effort Intuit puts into fighting off free e-filing, they'd be conflicted adding that question I think.

        Would their resistance matter when the government hears the potential dollar amount? I'm in the United States I don't know where you're from but if we had an asshole tax our government would be the most incomprehensibly rich entity in the universe.

      So... a social credit score?
      • flattone 7y ago
        Good point. :/

          I actually think it could work in principle, but maybe you should only get a tax break if it's unusually low and otherwise nothing happens.

  The way this society is structured, it's basically the inverse. Assholes usually end up doing better, at least if they're smart.
