No. I said nothing remotely similar to that. Jesus ####ing Christ, stop building straw men for ten seconds and listen to what I'm saying. The question isn't whether they should have to pay tax on the income more than once. It's what sorts of people are benefiting from the system without contributing to it. That was his only point. I'm now stuck explaining it for the second post in a row, not out of any commitment to his argument but more as a matter of basic intellectual honesty, because you're making a deliberate attempt to avoid understanding.

FML, people are frustrating. Do you not understand how bad it makes you look to double down on your own misinterpretation here? You're not saving face, you're losing it twice over.
