Capitalism working as intended. Wealth extraction without having to give back to the community.
Like i think the intended path here is that taxes pay for a library, a park, or a community center. Having random businesses create hang out spots out of the goodness of their heart is not the intended path. They can if it makes sense for their business, but community needs should be primarily funded through taxes not business charity.
Increased payroll taxes increases expenses for the business and if expenses increase enough business will go under.
Wage taxes suck for the employee, but they are not the only party affected.
The amount of disconnect from reality is staggering.
