Originally posted by Captain Well its both. Last FBR report I read, less than 5% of the population properly paid their taxes. Pakistan currently relies heavily on taxing the business end of things rather than most individuals and consumers.
if this is true then PTI wouldnt have used the abolishment of income taxes as one of their election manifestos.
i believe the inverse is true. businesses that mostly belonged to army cronies escaped paying taxes while regular pakies are being made to pay for the shortfall in taxes collection.
are those reports reliable or are they government figures ??? -

Originally posted by Captain Because they are accountable. Their accountability just comes from how the electees bemefit or hurt the nation.
as a whole, not as single individuals.
herd accountability isnt accountability.
a father should have to face his son and bear the shame of having voted an asshole into office when he was young and now his son would have to bear the consequences and all sequences of events arising from the results of his vote. -

Originally posted by Zanick I wouldn't say that exactly. While I do enjoy the subtle flavors that distinguish one cup from another, I also have an element of craftsmanship in my hobby that makes each cup my own in a unique way.
the point is that your feeling something that isnt there.
do you serve your coffee to others and then get together on a round table and discuss their subtle differences while holding onto your coffee cup with your pinkies out ??? -

Originally posted by Captain Certainly, but that is not a categorical problem with consumption end taxes; there is no reason you cannot avoid this by carefully structuring tax rates against necessity and market demand. It has been argued that collecting through sales taxes actually encourages optimized spending rather than necessarily saving. But it also encourages saving.
To address Japan in particular: do you know WHY the Japs save so much?
1 - i was actually addressing t2k1 when he said that sales taxes should be applied to everything.
2 - japanese culture and and aging population. old people dont have much to splurge on. -

Originally posted by Captain Taxing spending is the point. There is no issue here. You are encouraged to save. Hopefully if investments are taxed properly, you (and banks) will be more inclined to invest than purchase shit you dont need.
So again, what is the point?
no, economies will whither and die if if everybody saves.
seriously, it will WITHER AND DIE.
which is why in saving high countries like japan, they have negative interest for savings. thats right, you are going to be charged, ie; paying for your savings.
its exactly due to savings that we have so many kinds of loans and debts available on the market for you to get in indebted to.
the economy will and must find a way to get rid of all the accumulated solid monies just how clouds must precipitate into rains.
and before the needs for investments can arise, new opportunity and venue to sell and buy must first be created. there has to be market demand for something before theres a need for money to be invested to fulfill that market demand. -

Originally posted by NARCassist Generational studies has proven that peoples psyches, beliefs and way of thinking is heavily influenced by your environment and society you grow up in.
not true anymore since 1990 when china start producing cheap TVs and ship them to the west.
everything since then came from a screen. all. everything. -
2018-07-28 at 6:43 PM UTC in What coffee are you brewing lately?
Originally posted by Zanick I have a few different roasters. My primary machine is made much like a convection oven and it's called the Behmor 1600. I like it because it offers a degree of precision and a bean capacity that I can't match in my current budget with other methods. Finding anything that roasts a pound at a time for under a grand is otherwise quite difficult, and what makes the Behmor great is that it can roast a handful of beans just as effectively as it does a full load, which makes it valuable whether I just want to sample a coffee or roast a few day's worth.
The Behmor has lots of different settings that alter how much heat is applied and how quickly, which is important because there is a relationship between the elevation at which a bean is grown and its density. There are all sorts of other variables that come into play with regards to climate, processing, depulping, etc. that change how you roast, and which ultimately shape the flavor of the resulting cup, and although there are limitations with a digitally controlled roaster, they account for almost any of those variables, making this a highly versatile device.
Aside from the Behmor, I've used a manual Kaldi roaster in the past. I got it cheap from some Korean website I couldn't read. It sits on top of a bunsen burner while I use it, and I have to crank it so that the beans turn over in the drum as they roast. It's not ideal, but it was my first real coffee roasting instrument, and technically, it's closer to the experience of higher-end roasting methods because most machines of professional quality are of a similar build and layout, apart from the hand crank.
That wood-handle scoop on the lower-left is called a "sampling rod" and it can be used to scoop a few beans out of the drum at any time during the roast so that I can look at them and smell them to figure out how much longer before I dump the beans into a cooling pitcher, which usually means moving them around in a bowl I left in the freezer for a while.
Despite the fun I have using the Kaldi and getting a fuller roasting experience over flame and everything, it's still a piece of garbage that I dropped far too much cash getting into the country. I've never burned myself so badly as when I brushed my wrist up against the hot body of this machine. The Behmor is infinitely more simple, safer, and less subject to user error, but the Kaldi build is overall more representative of the coffee process and I do like having it around for show-and-tell.
your just being lanny but instead of doing it with dangerous alcohol,
your doing it with safe, beta beverages. like coffee. -
