Cant imagine making 30 k a year and having to pay even 1600 in taxes. This is saying it will increase that much.

What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
The lifecycle of Big Internet
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

It's the same in Germany, people listed the actual tax cuts that'll happen per income bracket for each of the major parties, and surprisingly the nazi party that keeps drumming up the "We're the common man's party!!!!!!" is the one that wants to make the rich richer.
And if you want to make the rich more richer than the fucking FDP, a factually one-man party by a guy that can only comment "But what about Porsche drivers?!" to any problem you put in front of him, wow are you a rich assholes party.
Remember, fellow Germans: Today we vote. And if on the way out you vote with your fist in the face of a nazi or nazi-sympathizing voter, that's a bonus!
Unfortunately, disinformation seems to be the winning strategy.
From an American: sorry for Facebook, Twitter, all that... Both our parties are kinda bought by big tech, and it's affecting y'all too.
And that's why i said that US is just speedrunning things.
