I watched Milton Friedman videos before! He schooled some ignorant people hahaha. I keep hearing that overpaying taxes is not good and on the other hand people say the government should over tax the rich. Why should we tax the rich? They create jobs, don’t even use the same services as the lower income people do and they often times ad value to our society.
I was recently reading the history of spirits around the world and learned how taxes help create some of our most favorite beverages.
Lower taxes attract businesses to operate in low tax states. We want strong businesses to operate in our cities, they create jobs and help our communities.
Power in this game is speed and although I love Necro’s they are not ladder starters never have been never will be the only class worse as a ladder starter are Druids.
And this is issue, because its not just you but everyone. It would be fine on single player but not online where if you have several characters with power of blizz sorc or hammerdin in same game, difficulty will become joke.
Actually no the federal income tax started off as an excise tax on tobacco (poor mans pleasure) not a tax on labor and was used to pay for the war effort the Civil War that is taxes have never been designed as a tax on the rich hence the loopholes that only rich people can wiggle out of not poor working people the federal income tax was never meant to be a tax on labor it is an excise tax.
Bring the other classes up to sorc and pally level, nerfing them will really ruin the game. If you want to nerf the two fastest classes just don’t play them. Why do so many members of this community want to take away what others find fun and force them to play their way? You aren’t the gatekeeper of what is and isn’t fun.
Also the economic discussion is this thread is somehow even worse than the topic.
I think when they should have originally released the game with a small 0.4s cooldown on teleport… Should be a skill to quickly reposition on the screen, or escape a dangerous pack…
The way it is now means sorcs cast so quickly that they can tele direct into a mob of monsters and escape… Should have made it so this was not possible, and teleporting was harder/dangerous.
Unfortunately, I think game is too old now…
Hopefully they will fix this for Diablo IV and balance around this change…
The Revenue Act in 1862 wasn’t just for Tobacco and it was repealed in 1872. The bill included language for both an income tax as well as an excise tax on “luxury and sin”. The income tax portion was the first progressive tax. People with incomes of $600 or less didn’t pay anything.
I was referring to the income tax that persists to today. These tax started with the ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment in 1913 and the subsequent passing of The Revenue Act of 1913. The rates for this income tax were 1% and topped off at 7% where the first $20,000 was taxed at 1%. $20,000 from 1913 is equivalent to roughly $550,000 in current purchasing power. You are already aware what the modern tax brackets are.
I haven’t made any arrangements about who actually pays the taxes. Lobbying dollars ensure that tax loopholes exists for those that demand em…
This topic is already derailed enough, this will be my last post regarding taxes in this thread .
Nerf this! Nerf that! Nerf! Nerf! Nerf ! None of you ever learn! If their so OP Play them! But no you’d rather nerf everything you don’t wanna play, What none of are ever willing to understand is it all balances out and there are advantages and disadvantages to everything. I never liked the Druid class or Necro class So in spite of the advantages and there are advantages I never said nerf the Necro, and now your gonna say what advantage does the Necro have? Well tell just how n why is it that the Necro is the only class you play start to finish naked inHard Core all the way to Guardian?{PS Naked mean start to finish playing only with the gear issued in the 1st place the wand and that’s it} Yes their are advantages and disadvantages to playing any class so quit with this Nerf
Instead of cooldowns, nerfing, giving more items teleport…why not just limit the tele bs; and on act bosses and their WPs just disable the use of teleport skill/charges, so you have no choice but to walk and play the game, while questing/farming. Use frw gear, charms or vigor if you wanna more faster.
No teleporting in Catacombs 1-4, All Tombs, Durance 1-3, River of Flame and Worldstone 1-Throne. I mean you already get half way there once you have the waypoint. Actually play the game, kinda like how you fixed Act 3 in PTR.
I’m sorry quite a bit of players get so butt hurt over a “video game”, if nothing changes it is what it is just deal or more on. I’m just glad to see the devs and the community are more active then ever.
They cant just disable viable skill, it would mean Sorc is -1 to skills lol, terrible idea.
Teleport in current version is like cheat mode on.
Thats why they should nerf it, nerf it hard; add diminishing returns/skill charges/progressive cd or something + debuff like -100% to all res. Tely as GOD moed should be big reward and big risk skill Imo.
boost classes, boost monsters, put more immunes for magic, less for fire which will also influence players to choose party play.
ANd they said they will always be after teamplay and communication.
I’m only ok with boosting monsters via a /players8 command that increases drop rates along with it.
I’m never ok with immunities. I think they are a bad dynamic, especially dual immunities. If they had a dynamic available to all classes that could turn an immunity into a resistance, maybe. But the game shouldn’t be about running away from mobs because you can’t kill them or remaking a game until the immunities are less harsh for the character you’re playing.
IKR meanwhile barbs Whirlwind is still bugged by doing 0 damage every now and then and BotD not triggering and then you have the Bowzon, sorry Bozozon who needs endgame gear to farm cows smoothly while Java just needs a pair of titans.
So don’t use it. Smh, Anyone who actually gets off these fourms and farms knows, that good drops don’t come from teleporting to bosses. Most hrs comes from killing mobs, and walking.
