Taxed

And for the next three months, I’d be punished additionally for earning a living. This was after I’d spent the preceding nine months investing money so that this wouldn’t happen. But there’d always be a  criterion that they’d use to ensure my efforts were wasted. To this merciless system is dedicated my version of taxonomy.

(def #2, #1 is the actual meaning of the word)

until next time, defined a taxee too 😉

    If you can earn for 9 months and be taxed only for 3, I hope you appreciate what a low tax economy you live in! Look up ‘tax freedom day’ and you will find that a British citizen works for a good 155 days for the Exchequer.

    talk about bad luck.. I just finished grappling with the second definition of taxonomy, and have started a tussle with the first definition of taxonomy at work 🙁

    Don’t you think they should offer a set off for diminution of investment?
