Anybody who understands what VAT is and how it works cannot take this part of the article seriously. I hate VAT, I think it should cease to exist (it is still marginally better than sale taxes) but I made the effort to actually try to understand how it works before writing bullshit about it on basically a blog post.
- watwut 1y agoThe article is lying. At this point, it is not reasonable to assume this is just not understanding things. People who work in these institutions lie, they are paid for lying and they do it to project their ideological agenda.
- smitty1e 1y ago> The article is lying. A legless assertion. Could you be more specific with the objection, please?
- orwin 1y agoI think you greatly overestimate the understanding of people working in those institutions. They have a framework and try to make everything they read/hear about go through that framework, even if it doesn't really fit. They don't really understand, but have strong opinions and held them at least as strongly, maybe more. They aren't idiots in any case, but clearly, in this particular case, the author doesn't know what he is talking about.
