If I have $250k in shares I can also use that as collateral for a mortgage to buy a house. It would be pretty odd and problematic to be taxed on that like it’s income when it’s not, despite me spending it on a house…because I need to pay it back.

I agree with the rest though. And definitely would love to see 90% for anyone reporting extremely high incomes.

Contrary to popular belief, violence actually is the solution in some situations.

Perhaps not this one and there could be an interesting discussion around that, but I fucking hate the idea that violence is never a solution when it absolutely is sometimes.

I’m going to use this next time I don’t tip

It’s neither lol, it’s the people themselves.

Blame choosing to drink alcohol or fly a low cost carrier, but like…really it’s you. Sorry.

Can we…stop yelling?

While low risk, I think index investing still counts as gambling. The house maybe too.

Depreciating investments like a car should be ok though.

Well yeah. Weighing out 500g 400 times and then cutting into 6 pieces is going to be a lot faster than weighing out 83 grams 2400 times with no cutting after. Some variance between sizes of pieces is fine.

The person isn’t even Canadian and has no idea what they are talking about.

What are you even talking about? There is lots different about USA and Canada, but in terms of the things listed in the original image I don’t see any differences.

Edit: After looking it over again, yep…literally everything on the card is good and valid advice for Canadians. None of it has anything to do with any constitution at all lol.

Yep, and MAID is particularly useful in situations where one is physically unable to off themselves. Wanting someone who doesn’t want to be around to remain trapped in that state is extremely cruel.

I think quadriplegic people should be able to end their life if they so choose. This shouldn’t be a controversial opinion at all.

Which you can learn about…in Maus. Ffs.

Okay, but didn’t that happen in an environment where ket was not legally available for people who may be able to benefit from it? Like…that shit already happens. And yeah it sucks.

Do you not feel he would have benefited from it being legal when he attempted to seek treatment? Might he have had less motivation to steal and suck his landlords dick if the illegal market didn’t make the drugs so cost prohibitive?

I think allowing people who abuse them to, well, abuse them is an acceptable byproduct of also helping meaningfully treated various other peoples depression.

It’s not one or the other.

They didn’t do a proper legalization like Canada though. Just half-assed it.

I’m ok with them harming some innocent people in the process of killing themselves. Greater good.

Eminem used the term in the song ‘Criminal’ which came out 24 years ago.

It means ‘hey I’m here’ in SE Asia and it works effectively for that. Loud, annoying…but it does accomplish something.

I never blame the people asking for tips, I instead blame those giving them.

I’ll list my Bitcoin address for anyone who would like to tip me! As I wrote out this whole comment for free, a tip seems quite reasonable here. If you disagree and choose not to tip me, that’s ok since tips are optional…but please don’t start rambling about how others should be tipping when you yourself did not tip me when provided the opportunity.

Yep. And I’d argue it’s an almost ethical responsibility for those aware of all this to preserve a media archive via piracy. Sort of like those monks that would repeatedly copy old scrolls before they would degrade or whatever.
