>>684229>by the way how do leftists feel about paying taxes?as a movement? under capitalism it falls within class struggle: at the end of the day someone has to pay them, it will come either from the wage of the workers or from the profits of capitalists - the ratio is mostly indifferent to any particular regulation and is actually decided in wage negotiations
for example, if there is a tax on sales, if capitalists raise prices then the consumers are paying the tax. but if the workers manage to negotiate better wages in response, then the burden of the tax moves back to the capitalist
at a personal level if you are rational person you want to avoid taxes no matter what any political movement says, socialism is about the emancipation of the workers as a class rather than moral imperatives for your personal life
