Then they tax any interest payments at 30% or so as though the interest payments were "profit". As if that isn't enough, they then tax "capital gains" which result simply from inflation as though those too are "profit". <
We are more subtle in our stealing.We hold rates at zero,run inflation at 5% and use hedonic adjustments to make it look like 2%.Much cleaner than hyper inflationYet we steal 5% a year
