> Deutsche Bank placed number one in money laundering.

How does that ad hominem refute or support the claim that remote workers should be taxed to subsidize vulnerable jobs?



Because it's a stupid statement when there are companies that are making more money this year than they did ever before and that billionaires have increased their wealth by so much during this pandemic.

Again, that makes zero sense and is another blatant red herring. If the discussion is about taxing WFH to support vulnerable jobs, it makes absolutely no sense to waste time playing the whole whack-a-mole whataboutism game.

If you don't want to discuss the topic under discussion, please refrain from commenting at all. You'll only end up adding noise to an otherwise interesting discussion.


Why not tax the corporations who stand to gain from long-term WFH? They will save millions on office space. Let's take that surplus rather than squeezing the employees yet again.


The topic of the discussion is stupid. As I said in the earlier comment.

Don't tell me when or when I shouldn't comment because this proposal is a ridiculous proposal and I'm going to say it so.
