agreed, remove it now before it grows into an insidious beast that devours us all. the drumbeat for increased taxes has already begun. 2% leads to 4% which leads to 6% which inevitably leads to additional taxation because it's easy to take money from those who have earned it.

shelve the idea now

There is really no sign RS3 wants to do anything to the 2% GE tax whatsoever. No sign the overwhelmingly vast majority of RS3 players even care about GE tax now, let alone increasing or decreasing it.

PSA: The RS3 team is accepting questions and suggestions on game content now on Reddit for a Q&A livestream next Wednesday. Nobody has even asked about GE Tax anymore. If you have concerns on "increasing" tax, perhaps you can be the very first to raise the question there:

It would be thought a hard government that should tax its people one tenth part (10%).

Edit: Corrected as per A Cole's post.

~ Benjamin Franklin One tenth part is 10%.

0.1% is one thousandth part.

One tenth part is where we get the term
tithe
which has longstanding association with taxation.

So, it appears I have not a tenth part of the style nor a thousandth part of the wisdom of Benjamin Franklin.

Thank you A Cole. I corrected it.

9 pages! That's crazy for these forums in 2023. You have a lot of support.

A good amount, and a lot of arguement/discussion as well. ;)



The former visitor to this forum who's anger prohibited his message being seen by the public was not off-the-wall in that message.

Numerous historians and philosophers have held the same message to be true.

The visitors basic message was
taxation = theft
.

I have prepared to make a case for his message because he deserves to be heard.

I will need about 7 posts (I think) to help make his case for him.

I hope I can get those 7 posts in without interruption. Thanks for everyone's anticipated cooperation with me on my thread.
