  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Typically it is the city taxes that pay for libraries, sometimes state. therefore just purchases goods in a different city and live where the state doesn't charge income tax and you avoid paying for the library, happy?

Wut? It doesn't matter what you do - you still pay taxes (unless you're Bezos). Thus everything is paid by you in advance. Also, which shithole has different taxes between cities?

city's have different sales tax in America, I wouldn't be surprised if one or two states force them to have the same, but most states allow cities to do whatever they want with sales tax.

Lol, that's insanity. No wonder you chose Trump to lead you, lol.

don't worry, it can get more complicated, there are cities with different summer and winter taxes, different sales tax rates on different items, and sales tax limits per purchase.
