Should we make the tax an addition to the price when you purchase like in the US or add some sanity and have it included in the price like everywhere else?

have it included, makes it easier for the brain

You would not enjoy seeing a price of $300 and it charges you $330?
That's the best part, getting a mysterious bonus fee!

Can we have multiple types of VAT and different types of indirect taxes also additional taxes depending on the city you live + properties please

Also display only the base price for everything and give people the percentages of it all so they may calculate the total cost in the end

Dude. Just stop, this is so dumb. A real first world country like the US would never do something like this, it makes no sense.

Adding on a percentage to what you want to buy is the best part!
It gets even more fun when you factor in state sales tax, any applicable federal sales taxes, and even sometimes sales taxes going to your local county/city depending on where you happen to be at the time. Don’t forget to add in a tip of around 15-20% if the service was good at a restaurant.

If I’m not allowed to evade paying my taxes and fight off hordes of IRS debt collection squads, I’ll dump my box of Lipton into a river.

Technically player businesses can evade tax, not sure at what point a department of police will have someone who wants to investigate that stuff though

just get paid 10 times the amount a normal working class citizen does and you're guaranteed to be able to avoid paying taxes as we've been taught by global politics

There's an unbelievable number of different dynamics for us to take into account for everything we're developing, even with bank accounts we have to allow some authority like judges to get your banking records.

Then technically you don’t have to pay capital gains tax on said stock until you sell it. It’s not technically income until it’s in a position that you’re able to spend the money on something.

When you get it as a stock, it’s like being paid with a material non-currency item, say food. Which isn’t taxable.
