The other day I was waiting at a left turn. A “homeless” person was asking for money from all the cars waiting at the turn. Anyways, she received a phone call and pulled out an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

I’m in the wrong profession...
I was passing by a church at night once and there was some music. Curious, I walked towards it and saw a guy sleeping there, watching a Youtube video on his iPhone.

Another one.

On the 25th of December 2013, I volunteered to distribute free meals to people in Perth, Australia, in a giant tent they had installed in the middle of a park.

Half-way through, some artists on stilts came in to entertain the people.

I will never forget about that dude that took out an ipad to take pictures. I was a backpacker and had maybe 500 euros on my account. And I was helping a guy that did not have enough money to eat and yet, had an ipad.

Then today I checked how much entrepreneurs were taxed when they start a company in Belgium.

The answer was 42%. And the more you earn, the more you get taxed.

That led me to a revelation.

Taxing work makes no sense.
It is inactivity that you should tax. If people do nothing, they get taxed. If they start doing something, then society leaves them alone.

I dare not imagine what would unfold.
