Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

The bottom description for Excise Tax is the Customs Tax one

Also VAT is just wrong. It makes it seem like you have to pay for every improvement, which is only true if every improvement is being made by a different company.

This thing seems more like a tirade against taxes wrapped up in "educational" packaging.

There's other stupid things as well, such as with income tax as something companies have to pay, when it's actually paid by the employee as well as VAT is directly paid by consumer.

This all seems like something a person with good intentions but zero clue crafted up. Or maybe the intention is to show "hey look how much companies are paying taxes so that you don't have to"

And payroll taxes being for roads and schools when they're really for healthcare and retirement (social security).
