I dont really care what people choose to do because what I have to say probably wont change anything but i do understand why we pay for taxes and i think that the government should spend/invest on more important things.

Tax evasion is perfect ones by those who decide on government spending. If. It then, then their close acquaintances.

I feel that tax rates are sufficient at the moment, but we need to close loopholes and collect from those evading. Those who are fortunate to be wealthy don't necessarily need to be taxed more, but should pay more using this method.

Biden’s withdrawal spells new uncertainty for Ukraine

Officials in Moscow, widely thought to favor Trump, were noncommittal.“The Ukrainians are pretty disappointed with Biden,” said Edward Lucas, a senior adviser at the Center for European Policy Analysis. “Biden’s dithering has a price, paid in the destruction of Ukrainian infrastructure and the slaughter of Ukrainian civilians, and in unnecessary battlefield casualties.“So although Trump might be worse … a continuation of the Biden line is already pretty grim.”
